God is a Warrior?: Violence in the Bible

By The Pastoral Center

Is the Bible friend or foe to the peacemaker? The Bible challenges us to be reconciled to one another and work for justice. So what do we do with the stories that seem to condone violence or even encourage it? How do we reconcile a "warrior" God with the God of love embodied in Jesus? In a world filled with violence, is following Jesus' Way of nonviolent confrontation realistic? This unit leads you and your group to grapple with these tough questions, with the help of new insight and information about stories of "violence." (6 sessions, plus extender session) - About IN REAL LIFE: Help youth apply the Bible to real life and discuss their faith. This all-in-one curriculum guides youth and their leaders on a journey for meaning and identity. This series encourages youth to encounter and explore Scripture to make it their own. In a time of violence, injustice, materialism, and hard questions, In Real Life offers a different point of view.
