Church of the Brethren Webcast Series

"War, violence, and inter-religious dialog are daily realities for our Christian sisters and brothers in Indonesia," says Scott Holland, associate professor of Theology and director of Peace Studies and Cross-Cultural Studies at Bethany Theological Seminary.  In this interview, Scott and Don Miller, professor emeritus of Christian Education, recount just a few of the many powerful testimonies of peace shared by citizens from various Asian countries at the December Historic Peace Churches International Conference.  It was the third in a series of gatherings sponsored by the World Council of Churches' Decade to Overcome Violence initiative. Other conferences were held in Switzerland in 2001 and Kenya in 2003.  Miller and Holland are joined by Dawn Ottoni Wilhelm, associate professor of Preaching and Worship, who attended the Kenya conference.
