Introduction to Christian Peacebuilding 6-week Small Group


February 19 - March 26
Thursdays, 7-8:30pm GMT
(then GMT+1 as there will be a time change during the course)
Online via Zoom


God's reign is characterized by shalom, a holistic just peace in which all relationships are restored and made right. So if God's mission is to establish the holistic shalom of God's kingdom, then our Christian vocation and calling is to follow Jesus into the sacred, healing work of peacebuilding. 

Join this 6-week online small group to introduce peace-oriented theology, conflict transformation, and peacebuilding skills. As peacebuilders, we recognize that conflict unveils ruptured relationships, both interpersonally and between groups, so conflict can become an opportunity to work toward deeper connection, justice, and God's shalom. 

This course runs during Lent and will include Lent-based prayers and meditations.

This online small group is for anyone curious about how their faith and peacebuilding fit together, who wants to begin learning about how to live as a peacebuilder, or who hopes to lead such conversations in their community. This small group is intended as a launching pad to help you grasp the scope and beauty of God’s shalom vision as we learn to follow Jesus on his peacebuilding mission and to provide resources and support for you and your friends on the peacebuilding journey.
