Citing the example of Jesus and the teachings of the Old and New Testaments, Bugu contends for the indispensability of peace in human life. He also distinguishes between general peace and the special peace revealed in Jesus. His discussion includes comments on defining peace, the history of the Church of the Brethren in Nigeria, and the question of pacifism or reconciliation in the Nigerian context.
