Hi, I'm John, Father John Dear, and welcome to the Nonviolent Jesus Podcast, where we'll
explore the life and teachings of the nonviolent Jesus, His great call to practice active,
creative nonviolence and live out the Beatitudes, the Sermon on the Mount, and the Gospel message
of universal love, universal compassion, and universal peace.
Every week we'll sit down with activists, visionaries, and leaders of peace, justice,
and nonviolence, great voices like Martin Sheen, Sister Helen Prejean, Richard Rohr,
Joan Chittister, Joan Baez, and many others, and sometimes I'll give my own reflections.
Together we'll go forward working for a new world without war, poverty, racism, and environmental
destruction and reimagine a new world of justice, peace, and nonviolence, the coming of God's
reign of peace here on earth today.
So join us in the footsteps of the nonviolent Jesus.
