Grounds For Peace Episodes
Grounds for Peace explores what it means to follow Jesus, the peaceful One, and to live in recognition of the sacred interconnectedness of all creation.
Launched with the 2020 Community of Christ European Peace Colloquy, this series features follow-up interviews with presenters who address a wide range of urgent topics: peace and mental health, peace education in schools, nuclear disarmament, countering dehumanization, challenging nationalism, veganism, and social justice in the age of corporate power.
Beyond the colloquy, Grounds for Peace continues to host vital conversations that take a hard and hopeful look at peacemaking. Together, we explore essential questions like: What is the role of spirituality in working for social change? What difference can people of faith make in a hurting world?
Whether you’re an activist, a spiritual seeker, or someone simply longing for a more just and compassionate world, this series invites you into the work of peace — grounded in faith, community, and courage.
