Racial Relations - For many of these workshops we have partnered with We Are Threaded that seeks to bring together people from different perspectives to converse and learn about racial relations. This topic is center stage in our world. What does the Bible say about racial relations? How are we to understand another race’s perspective? How do we have conversations that honor God and learn from one another? These workshops will answer these questions and more.
International - For many of these workshops we partnered with ALARM-Africa to present these workshops. ALARM's workshops are presented by a local ALARM organization in different countries. ALARM works in the context of their country’s concerns and people to apply biblical principals of forgiveness, understanding and peace in the communities they live in. These workshops teach what ALARM and others have done in their particular context though the principles can be applied universally.
Advanced - These workshops aim to equip those who are already reconcilers in their churches or professional settings by addressing common issues that reconcilers face. Experienced presenters will bring their expertise and case studies to real-life situations that happen in conflict resolution.
Introduction - These workshops aim to address broader issues of conflict resolution, sin issues that contribute to conflict, introductory teaching on reconciliation and personal peacemaking, teaching reconciliation to the next generation and more. Whether you are new to being an ambassador of reconciliation or a seasoned veteran these workshops will help you to live out a lifestyle of reconciliation in your home, church, work and community.
Foundational - These workshops are geared toward reconcilers who have completed the foundational reconciler training (Coaching People to Reconcile and Mediating People through Conflict) to further equip them for their service as reconcilers.

All ambassadors have a certain level of feeling trepidation when working with conflicted parties. This workshop will describe what is happening with your emotions and how to manage your emotions so that you can be available to those needing your sense of peace and calm. We'll explore the issues of transference and counter transference and describe simple processes to keep you out of the weeds and on the clear path of compassionate reconciliation. Prepare for this session by watching which discusses the brain's sense of fear/threat of danger. This session will address what someone else's sense of danger does to subvert relational currency/rapport/"passport" and how the Word of God effects this intersection for the conflicted and the reconciler. This session will also define the terms crisis, trauma, and emotional/relational competency in relation to contracting the reconciliation process with conflicted parties.

Did you know that when the Bible defines the Gospel, it defines it as Jesus’ Death Burial and Resurrection? (1 Cor 15:1-4). Passing over the definition of the Gospel as ‘good news’ leaves a lot of practical tools in resolving conflict on the table. Come investigate with us the depth of God’s DNA in resolving conflict as demonstrated by the greatest reconciliation act ever accomplished.

This workshop will include case study breakouts and much practical application.
