The Missing Peace offers a transformative journey into meditation, blending ancient Christian wisdom and practice with contemporary practical guidance. This insightful book explores how individuals can cultivate inner stillness, silence, and compassion, nurturing peace within themselves and becoming beacons of peace in the world. Through the practices of meditation and prayer, it invites readers to discover the silent presence of God within and reconnect with the boundless love that sustains all of creation.

In 50 gentle and short teachings rooted in Christian tradition, and drawn from the work of the School of Contemplative Life, Whittington emphasizes the healing power of contemplation in a world of noise. He invites us and equips us to be people of peace, firstly in ourselves, but increasingly so that we can be peace bringers in our community and our world. In a final section, he offers 4 practice guides to help readers continue their own contemplative practice into the future.
