Contemplation and The Way of Peace

There are two primary conversion stories in the Book of Acts. Both are related numerous times. The first is the conversion of Saul of Tarsus from a violent persecutor of Christians to an advocate for Christ. The other is the conversion of the Apostle Peter from prejudice toward Gentiles to advocating for their full inclusion in the church. Both stories are conversions from persecution or prejudice to advocacy. Advocacy is the nature of the Holy Spirit and the way of peace, but this kind of advocacy requires a breakthrough in contemplation.
