Sobre IBD

Instrument of Peace invites readers to move beyond reciting a beloved prayer into embodying it in daily life. In a world marked by division, violence, and moral strain, this book explores what it means to become a bearer of peace when peace feels fragile or absent. Drawing from real-world experiences--especially in contexts of disaster, suffering, and human conflict--the book reframes the Prayer of St. Francis not as idealistic poetry but as a demanding, lived practice. Each line becomes a pathway: from hatred to love, from injury to forgiveness, from despair to hope.The purpose of this book is twofold: to deepen spiritual formation and to offer practical guidance for those seeking to live faithfully amid brokenness. It equips readers--caregivers, leaders, responders, and everyday people alike--to act with courage, compassion, and integrity. Ultimately, this book asks a simple but profound question: What would it look like not just to pray for peace, but to become it? 6

  • Inevitable & Imminent
    Hugh Wesley Carrington
    We’ve been duped into removing prayer from the center of our churches and have placed it on the periphery or semi-periphery.  What we’re witnessing today in our churches, and in society at large, is that legacy of prayerlessness.  Church leadership may be hesitant and embarrassed to admit it, but there is a direct correlation between our spiritual weakness and our lack of corpo...

In this heart-tugging monograph, Dr. Davis McGuirt draws from both his training in theology and the personal agony of watching his father die from cancer to provide a variety of biblical reasons for why we get sick.
