Peacemaking
PCMK
30 hrs
Course Description
Using the Peacemakers
material and other counseling models, this
course equips the student to employ a powerful Biblical system
for resolving conflicts between individuals, an individual and
God, and within one's self.
Course Goals
The church leader is expected to achieve a workable familiarity
with the following principles.
-
Getting to the Heart of
Conflict - Conflict starts in the heart. Therefore, if we fail to address the heart in a conflict, then
any solution will fall short of true reconciliation.
-
The Four G's - The biblical system for resolving conflict
is captured by "The Four G's":
Glorify God, Get
the log out of your own eye,
Gently
Restore, and
Go
and be reconciled.
-
The Slippery Slope - A visual tool for understanding the ways
people tend to and ought to respond to conflict.
-
The Seven A's of Confession - A guide to making a sincere and complete
confession.
-
The PAUSE Principle - A biblical approach to negotiation.
-
The Four Promises of
Forgiveness - A great way to remember what you are really
saying (and committing to) when you say "I
forgive you."
-
The Peacemaker's Pledge - Complete summary of biblical peacemaking,
suitable for churches or organizations to commit to together.
-
Relational Commitments - A way for a church to make a mutual
commitment to work together to pursue unity,
maintain friendships, preserve marriages, and
build relationships that reflect the love of
Christ.
-
The Gospel of Peace Mirrored
Through Peacemaking - A summary statement
of how the gospel of Jesus Christ is at the core
of biblical peacemaking.
