   <title>Playing Our Part: Enacting World Peace</title>
   <link>http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v526/__show_article/_a000526-000006.htm</link>
   <description>&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/catpic/526/2.gif&quot; title=&quot;Category: Articles&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; hspace=&quot;20&quot; vspace=&quot;10&quot;&gt;Playing Our Part addresses how the average person can best participate in the effort toward a non-violent world. The fundamental constructs of fear and love are examined, as well as why we choose either base from which to make our decisions. Relating todays violence to ancient ways of viewing God, a more refined image of Deity is offered. People are challenged to accept responsibility for their own growth, and are given hope humanity can evolve to where peace has its first true chance.   &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v526/__show_article/_a000526-000006.htm&quot;&gt;more &amp;gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description>

   <title>Deciding Peace</title>

   <description>&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/catpic/526/2.gif&quot; title=&quot;Category: Articles&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; hspace=&quot;20&quot; vspace=&quot;10&quot;&gt;Peace, whether in our homes or on our planet, is a product of choice - an environment conditioned by those present. It cannot be forced, imposed, or expected to flourish before its time: thinking so confuses the law of cause and effect. Whatever is used to bring about a new social order remains a part of us.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v526/__show_article/_a000526-000005.htm&quot;&gt;more &amp;gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description>

   <title>Praying for Peace</title>
   <link>http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v526/__show_article/_a000526-000003.htm</link>
   <description>&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/catpic/526/2.gif&quot; title=&quot;Category: Articles&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; hspace=&quot;20&quot; vspace=&quot;10&quot;&gt;Praying for Peace&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When called to write a column for his churchs periodical, my friend asked if I had any thoughts on praying in response to terrorism. Applying prayer to our own lives can often be confusing - it becomes much more so when we hope to use it in any meaningful way to affect global events. Still, many of us wish to participate in this manner: how can we make our efforts more effective? &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v526/__show_article/_a000526-000003.htm&quot;&gt;more &amp;gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description>

While we have grown in many ways, we still lack our saving grace  knowledge that we are all children of the same loving God.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Drawing on the Urantia Revelation, God Refined describes an expanded view of Deity, one founded in truth, beauty, and goodness. We are offered hope and a path through the chaos consuming todays world. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Extending theory into practice, Part 4 applies the principles discussed to the Arab-Israeli conflict showing how non-violence can only result from an environment conditioned by love. Our task is to evolve: the goal, a higher order of existence from where peace will have it first true chance.&lt;br&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://stores.lulu.com/bobkezer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;storefront&lt;/a&gt;</description>
