A discussion group to talk about the book Gandhi and Jesus: the saving power of nonviolence by Terrence J Rynne and the questions it raises for us about living in peace. We would like to invite any interested people from around Melbourne/Mornington Peninsula to join us.

Join us and open the lives of two great people and their message of love, dingity and peace for our times.

There will be an eight-part conversation to examine the unique lives of Gandhi and Jesus and their pursuit of peace in a world of normalised violence.
