Welcome to the site of Biblical Peacemaking! Our mission is to turn adults and youth onto the Bible's exciting relevance to the most urgent issue of the 21st century -- violence.
On this site you will find videos, essays, and links introducing the work of Rene Girard, upon whose insights our own biblical perspective is  based. Here we explore Girard's work on scapegoating, the relation between violence and religion, and a new, contemporary approach to an understanding of sin as "mimetic desire."

Our seminars for churches, youth groups, and other organizations are designed to help your folks understand the meaning of violence in the Bible, and what this means for peace-
making in the contemporary world. These seminars will get your youth and adults excited about the Bible!
