The Young Peacemaker - Teaching Students to Respond to Conflict God's Way
The Young Peacemaker is a valuable program that teaches children how to prevent and resolve conflict in a constructive and biblically faithful way.
We will emphasize the principles of confession, forgiveness, communication, and character development using realistic stories, practical applications, role plays, and stimulating activities. More information can be found about this program at https://rw360.org/the-young-peacemaker/ There are 12 lessons/principles that can be summarized as the following:
1. Conflict is a slippery slope.
2. Conflict starts in the heart.
3. Choices have consequences.
4. Wise-way choices are better than my way choices.
5. The blame game makes conflict worse.
6. Conflict is an opportunity.
7. The five A’s can resolve conflict.
8. Forgiveness is a choice.
9. It is never too late to start doing what’s right.
10. Think before you speak.
11. Respectful communication is more likely to be heard.
