I had read and finally finished this past September Kraybill and co.'s book THE AMISH, a companion to the PBS Documentary. I would say that the PBS documentary was a companion and add-on to the BOOK, THE AMISH. The AMISH was very thorough. Kraybill mentioned briefly in the book the happening at Nickel Mines.After playing around with a few other books, nothing really satisfying, I came across Amish Grace, and saw that Kraybill had written it, and so bought it expecting what happened: a great book. Kraybill obviously wrote this book before he (and company) wrote THE AMISH. In fact, Amish Grace's appendix is a VERY condensed format of The Amish book. Enough about that book though, Amish Grace is a really good read.Reading it, some of the time I wondered if the chapter structure was too loose, as in, "Okay, I know this is in some ways, about Amish and forgiveness, but what does this have to do about Nickel Mines?" If you feel that way, know that in the end Kraybill and co. bring it around to say, "Now that you've learned this, here's how it applies to what happened at Nickel Mines." I know and have heard that there is a Lifetime movie about this incident, and I have yet to see it, and don't know if I will. If I did, it would be purely for entertainment purposes, but even then(1) Watching a movie about people who don't watch TV doesn't seem right(2) Watching a movie to be entertained through the horrible tragedy that took place at Nickel Mines also doesn't seem right.Being an evangelical Christian Pastor, I learned a lot and was edified a lot by Kraybill and co.'s deep investigation into Amish Grace and what forgiveness is as the Amish see it, and as the Bible explains it. If you are curious about the whys, the suspected hypocrisies, or even the skepticism and doubt about the Amish and their forgiveness of this horrible tragedy, Kraybill, I believe, offers satisfying answers here.If you just want to take a study into what forgiveness is, this is a great place to study. Kraybill pulls no punches too, he will list chapter and verse that the Amish go to for their understanding of forgiveness. No matter if you're a Christian or not, or if you have a soft spot, or a skeptical spot for the Amish, this book ought to re-orient your thinking when considering how to respond to tragedies. I highly recommend it, and though I bought the Kindle version, I instantly bought a physical copy so I can share it.
I'm glad I ordered and read this book. I think of it in two parts, the first part describing in detail the crime and the perpetrator's actions that day. This first part of the book is very sad and difficult to read. The second part of the book is about forgiveness, how to forgive, why the Amish were able to forgive so quickly, etc. Well worth reading since we non-Amish people probably don't know enough about the Amish ways to figure this out for ourselves.I thought the second part of the book was a little bit redundant and might have accomplished its purpose a little more succinctly
This is an exceptional book dealing with forgiveness, grace, grief, tragedy, justice, and revenge. Three very able authors (Donald B. Kraybill, Steven M. Nolt, & David L. Weaver-Zercher) bring their research and skills together to give us an account of the news-story that became even bigger than the coverage of an attack on school girls in the Amish community of Nickel Mines. "WE FORGIVE" was gently spoken by the quiet suffers, but then shouted by the media to the world. The world didn't quite understand.This book explains the difference. This book enlightens us that know too little of the communities recognized through buggies. Those of us who live close enough to frequently see the "plain folk", Amish who are often fictionalized in best sellers, now have a book opportunity to understand a bit more truth about their faith. "Amish Grace" is an eye opener as well as a gentle explanation of the Amish spirit. I suspect even the Amish community themselves will accept this honest look at their community and their ways.The book details the hideous act of the murders, but also goes further and educates the reader on some history and development of this one Pennsylvania community so violently attacked--an Amish 9-11. The final segment tries to pull together Amish and outsider reaction. Tries to compare differences. It helps find answers to media questions such as motives for the astonishingly quick forgiveness offered by the non-violent country people.This is a scholarly view of the event and aftermath. It is a religious, emotional, and intellectual look at strong faith and how that can "transcend" in times of crisis. It just may help bridge at least one chasm of bigotry--that against the Amish.I certainly gained much additional respect for those Amish willing to sacrifice for their belief. I am so glad I've read this book.
This book is a thought-provoking quasi-academic look into the concept of forgiveness using the Amish religion and an Amish school shooting as a backdrop. The book is broken into sections. The initial section that details the school shooting tragedy and what how the Amish responded is a fairly engaging (entertaining seems inappropriate) the remainder of the book is a little stuffy and sometimes repetitive but through provoking and worth reading none-the-less. I would recommend this book to anyone who is struggling to let go of long standing hard feelings or grudges or someone who wants to explore their personal spirituality. The author does a good job of using religion factually in the book without making the reader feel like they are reading a "religious" work.
