Connexions Calendar

The Biblical Story of Hope and Healing


June 13, 2016 to June 17, 2016


Join us for "The Biblical Story of Hope and Healing" at the 2016 Canadian School of Peacebuilding with instructor Dan Epp-Tiessen. Courses are available for professional development, personal inspiration or academic credit. In order to face the challenges of our world, peacemakers must be people of hope. This course will explore the biblical story of healing and hope, focussing on how this story can nurture a spirituality and faith that are personally transformative and empower Christians to be agents of God's healing power in a hurting world. The course will examine biblical themes such as God as creator, prophetic visions of hope, God's reign/kingdom as initiated by Jesus, resurrection, and God's sustaining presence in human life, always asking how these biblical resources can be empowering for the challenges of peacemaking, justice work, and creation care.
