Despite their historic peace church status, Anabaptist-Mennonite peace positions have not incorporated opposition to gender-based violence and USA, this course examines contemporary theological, ecclesial, and ethical issues facing these branches of the church as they recognize past failures and begin to integrate gender justice into their peace theologies, with particular focus on intersections with feminist theologies, power analysis, and the roles of forgiveness, restorative justice, and trauma healing within abuse response and prevention.
Are you looking to learn more about Anabaptist history? MC Sask, in conjunction with Canadian Mennonite University (CMU), is offering this course. It will be taught in person at MCC Building (600 45th Street West Saskatoon) and online for CMU students on Thursdays from 1:30 pm through 4:15 pm (SK Time).
