Evangelical Peacemaking Movements w/The Telos Group
As nearly 30% of the U.S. electorate, the evangelical Christian community in the U.S. has the opportunity for massive impact on issues of justice, reconciliation, and peace. But these communities have often neglected the call to be peacemakers, as laid out in Matthew 5:9. Can evangelical communities reclaim this call and be a force for peace?
In this panel conversation, you will hear from an esteemed panel of Christian leaders who are working in evangelical communities to do just that. You’ll also hear about the movements they lead that are healing conflict and changing the script on injustice, and discuss how local leaders can shepherd their communities into the work of peacemaking.
