We’re facing an unprecedented crisis in our communities. 2017/18 saw the highest figures of knife-related homicides since 1946, with 31 out of 42 police forces in England and Wales recording an increase.
The Trauma Healing programme offers a Bible-based approach for churches, faith groups, community organisations, and prison chaplains to begin addressing the trauma experienced by individuals, communities and churches. As the wounds are healed inside, the world changes outside.
Listen to how Bible-based trauma healing is bringing hope and reconciliation to individuals, families and communities.
Chaired by Elizabeth Oldfield, Director of Theos, this panel discussion includes Pastor Nims Obunge, Pastor of Freedoms Ark and CEO of the Peace Alliance, Revd Dr Helen Paynter, Director of the Centre for the Study of Bible and Violence at Bristol Baptist College, and Chris Auckland, Bible Society’s lead on Trauma Healing.
