Does God Fight? Violence in the Bible

Is the Bible friend or foe to the peacemaker? The Bible challenges us to be reconciled to one another and to work for justice. But then what do we do with the stories that either seem to condone violence or event to encourage it? How do we reconcile a "warrior" God and the God of love embodied in Jesus? In a world filled with violence, is following Jesus' way of nonviolent confrontation realistic? These six sessions will help lead youth to grapple with these tough questions with the help of biblical insight and information about the Bible stories of "violence."
