12 days of virtual conversations, workshops, and collective discernment
Online | Free and open to all

In a time when authoritarianism and religious nationalism are gaining ground globally, what does it mean to follow Jesus — not as a cultural identity or national allegiance, but as a path of peace, solidarity, resistance, and hope?

This year, during the 12 Days of Peace – between the International Day of Peace and the International Day of Nonviolence – we’re bringing together diverse voices across geographies, spiritual traditions, and disciplines for a series of online events exploring how Christians and other justice-seekers can respond with courage, creativity, and compassion.

We’ll explore theologies, spiritual practices, and grassroots strategies that can help us resist forces of domination and oppression while building communities rooted in justice, healing, and solidarity.

Scroll down to see all the events, and sign up to join us for as many as you like.
