If we take Lundberg seriously, the only properly Christian attitude to war is grim determination to fight justly, no matter how much it costs us personally, and to engage in honest repentance and lament when the fighting has subsided and the long and tortuous road of the life of a war veteran begins.

Refugia Faith is one of the best books in print on how people of faith can summon the hope and the courage needed to heal and restore our home planet.
