Synopsis

In the early 1980s, the writing of A Time for Peace began, and, thanks to the perceptive comments of a group of early readers, this meditation book has been in print ever since. But it was time for an update. Some meditations have been tweaked. A foreword by The Rev. Donald Nelson, who translated this book into Portuguese for Brazilian readers, has been added, and the book has a new size and new cover with new artwork. But the book contains the same Twelve-Step wisdom thousands of readers have found relevant and meaningful for their daily lives. A profound gift to all the people of God, A Time for Peace is one of those rare daily meditation books that respects, challenges, and sustains its readers. Faithful to the biblical witness, sensitive to inclusive language, and steeped in the wisdom of the Twelve Steps, Mary Ylvisaker Nilsen offers us a literary work of art—welcome refreshment for all who journey in God’s shalom. Bishop Ann Svennungsen, Minneapolis Area Synod of the ELCA I heartily recommend this book to all recovering people. Mary Nilsen’s loving embrace of the Bible can only uplift and enhance each of us on our journeys. She helps make both Scripture and recovery “Trees of Life.” Congratulations to her and to all who grow from this work. Rabbi Susan B. Stone, Author of The Twelve-Steps and Jewish Tradition We who are tired of the promises of self-help books and programs or simplistic suggestions on how to live are now invited to sojourn in a different place—the world of wise relationships and insightful reflections on the self—and by so doing, experience a time for peace. The Rev. Donald Nelson, Garopaba, Brasil, 2017
