MIN 759 - Conflict and Peacemaking within Organizations and Communities

Credits 1.5
Empowered by the Spirit to renounce violence, love enemies, and seek justice, students will learn to deal with misunderstanding, disagreements, and conflicts within churches, non-profit organizations, and local communities. In an effort to practice peace of Anabaptists are susceptible to gossip and to passive-aggressive avoidance of conflict instead of moving toward people with whom they disagree. Students will be equipped with useful and Jesus-like strategies for bringing reconciliation to parties in conflict.
