Walk With Us For Peace in Gaza
Gaza Ceasefire Pilgrimage is a global network of 40 + autonomous Christian groups (including Peace Catalyst) who are engaging in a peaceful and prayerful show of solidarity with the people of Gaza by walking the length of the Gaza strip in cities around the world during Lent. As peace catalysts, we’re helping to organize a few walks around the United States. So far, we have one scheduled in the Twin Cities on March 23rd and one in San Diego on March 30th.
Get Trained in Nonviolent Communication
If you’re excited about learning Nonviolent Communication in a way that can support your desire to address larger systemic inequities in addition to supporting personal change, join us for this new eight-week training course!
Conquer Hate with the Power of Love
Hate groups will continue to poison hearts, stir up violence, and polarize people in 2018. So to gear up for these challenges I began re-reading Martin Luther King Jr.’s Strength to Love. Peacemaking is not for the faint of heart. It demands an uncompromising rejection of the unloving ways of the world and a radical embrace of the enemy-loving way of Jesus.
Wage Peace with Wisdom: Practice the Four R’s of Civil Discourse
Are you fed up with hate speech, inflammatory rhetoric, and uncivil discourse in politics and social media? We in Peace Catalyst International are… so we are beginning the Waging Peace Campaign!

Video: Sami Awad on The Power of Nonviolence
Peaceworker Sami Awad describes how nonviolence empowers people to deal with injustice and oppression, and breaks down the barriers that prevent people from relating to each other. Sami is the founder and Executive Director of Holy Land Trust, a Palestininan non-profit organization established to promote nonviolent resistence and work toward peace in the Holy Land.
The Message Ringing out from Bethlehem
I lectured at the Bethlehem Bible College for several years, and for my youth ministry courses, I required students to make several visits to the YMCA Rehabilitation Center in Beit Sahour, where they spent time with Muslim young men who had been shot or tortured by the Israeli military.
Peace Feast: Egypt and Black History Month
What do the recent events in Egypt and Black History Month have in common? Other than both being the theme of our last Peace Feast, the main commonality, I believe, is the use of cultural power over political power.
A Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
In an attempt to honor the contribution Dr. King has made to the cause of peace, I intend to craft a blog entry each day of this work week highlighting some person or group who is heroically promoting peace in the way of Jesus. Today, I will focus the spotlight on Dr. King himself.
