“Peace church in a world of conflict? Answering the biblical call to nonviolence”
This day of reflection and discussion will look at how we can be true to our vocation as peace churches in a world where we can feel that our message is not being heard and is regarded as impractical. How can we lead faithful lives when all around us we see violence and conflict? How can we encourage and support one another to link belief and practice, to bring the biblical call to nonviolence from the margins to the centre of the churches, and how can Israel Church In Zion help us in this?
