In the fall of 2005 the Lord told me to write about the Seven Churches of Asia written in Revelation chapters 2 and 3. With this word I prayed that the Lord would help me to know what to write, and not to leave anything out nor add to it anymore than He intended. The end result continues to astonish me to this day. During the year it took me to write this book, I cried, I laughed, and I got convicted. It is obvious to me that what He said to these seven churches is a controversial subject, but the Bible gives evidence that what is written herein is a fact. God requires far more of us than what most Believers are willing to live out, in their walk with God, and in refusing to comply could mean being rejected at the Judgment seat of Christ, where all Believers will stand to be Judged. You will need to read the entire book to understand what is meant by the previous sentence. Having shared the manuscript of this book with a number of other Believers in Christ, it has had a positive and sobering effect on those who have read it. This book contains a message all Believers need to hear; that is why it has been published. It is my sincere prayer for those who will read this book, that God will make its content a positive life changing event that will cause them to know Him in the fullness of His character and personality, what it is to fellowship and walk with God, and to do it moment by moment. Your brother and fellow servant in Christ, SAMUEL R. SIDERS

There are numerous examples throughout history of effective nonviolent action. Nonviolent protesters defied the Soviet Empire's communist rulers, Gandhi's nonviolent revolution defeated the British Empire, and Martin Luther King Jr.'s peaceful civil-rights crusade changed American history. Recent scholarship shows that nonviolent revolutions against injustice and dictatorship are actually more successful than violent campaigns. In this book, noted theologian and bestselling author Ron Sider argues that the search for peaceful alternatives to violence is not only a practical necessity in the wake of the twentieth century--the most bloody in human history--but also a moral demand of the Christian faith. He presents compelling examples of how nonviolent action has been practiced in history and in current social-political situations to promote peace and oppose injustice, showing that this path is a successful and viable alternative to violence.
