Autor

Jean Lasserre (1908-1983) was an internationally renowned pastor and peace theologian. He studied theology in Paris and the Union Theological Seminary in New York, where he became acquainted with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. After their graduation Lasserre and Boehoeffer travelled together around the United States and Mexico. In 1966 Lasserre was amongst the organisers that brought Martin Luther King Jr. to speak in Lyon. Lasserre's most significant contribution to theology was his dedication to Christian pacifism and the interpretation of the beatitude 'Blessed are the peacemakers'.
