For A New World – stories of lives changed

The spiritual and moral legacy of Frank Buchman lives on in songs, films, books, programmes and above all in the stories of countless people whose lives have found a new direction. While most of the material on this website currently comes from the movement he founded – The Oxford Group, Moral Re-Armament, now Initiatives of Change – it already includes much from other movements which grew from the same roots. The defining aim always has been, and still is, the quest for a hate-free, fear-free and greed-free world where each person has a unique calling and contribution.
