The monk at the compound -- Obeying commands or commandments -- Father Amjad and Muhammad under siege -- Though war rise up against me -- Challenging yet transforming the enemy -- The land that swallows its children -- The light of right, not the power of might -- What would you do if you were in my shoes -- Gestures of goodwill -- Christ in the Palestinian context -- Carry on -- Bright stars -- Perplexed, but not in despair -- A Christmas gift to Bethlehem -- Samar -- A matter of life and death -- Christmas, peace, and the wall -- The hope of the olive tree
