More About the Christian Peacebuilding Network
-
The Church too often responds to conflict with domination or avoidance instead of connection and care. This leads to churches and Christians perpetuating harm and violence in communities and society, rather than following Jesus as healers and peacebuilders.
-
To equip, support, and amplify the work of the Christian peacebuilding movement.
-
We envision God’s holistic peace and peacebuilding mission at the center of Church culture and defining the ways we train, disciple, teach, pray, work, and partner for the just peace and flourishing wholeness of our world.
