| Zusammenfassung: | Through examples of grace and gift of reconciliation the meaning of grace is interpreted in relation to social and political transformation.

It is a moment you cannot plan for, but hope for to happen. Trusting in the possibility of a gracious moment can influence your work in the present. Hoping and waiting for the gracious moment of reconciliation is linked to a praxis of active nonviolence as seen in the work of Martin Luther King, Jr. |
