🙏 Episode #10 – "Nonviolence is the only way forward" with Marie Dennis
❓What if the Church fully embraced the radical nonviolence of Jesus? Can the Church lead a nonviolent revolution?
This week on The Nonviolent Jesus, Fr. John Dear sits down with longtime peace activist and Catholic Nonviolence Initiative leader Marie Dennis to talk about shaking up the Vatican, challenging the outdated just war theory, and reclaiming the heart of the Gospel—active, world-changing nonviolence.
She states: "We can no longer view war as a solution...now we want to see nonviolence move to the center of the Catholic Church teaching."
Marie has spent her life pushing the Church toward justice, especially in recent years working behind the scenes at the Vatican and on the frontlines of global peacemaking. She calls nonviolence not just an ethic, but a way of life—a force capable of transforming entire societies. She tells us "Jesus teaches us to be more imaginative in how we deal with moments of crisis".
If you care about justice, social change, and living out the revolutionary message of Jesus, this is an episode you can’t miss! Marie Dennis reminds us that "Jesus on the cross is the ultimate witness to nonviolence!" and challenges us to a new way of thinking, a new way of living, and to carry on his witness of total nonviolence in our world of violence."
🎧 Listen in and join the movement for a Church that leads with peace, not war.
