Just Peacemaking
Tuesdays through October 27th, 7:00 p.m. on Zoom
In August 1995, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America Churchwide Assembly adopted a social statement entitled "For Peace in God's World." The first sentence of this statement affirms that as people of faith, we are called to be peacemakers.
In this class we will focus on what it means to fulfill that call. We begin by studying four classic approaches to war and peace. We will then consider a fifth approach that has emerged: Just Peacemaking. In our final session, we will identify some of the most significant global threats to peace in our time.
