Video | A Biblical Vision for Peace in a Troubled World
Aug 14, 2026
What does it mean to pursue peace in a world shaped by war, injustice, and competing narratives? In this lecture, Isabelle Hamley argues that the biblical vision of peace is far more expansive than the absence of conflict.
In a world marked by conflict and polarization, Isabelle Hamley invites us to recover a richer biblical vision of peace. Moving beyond the idea of peace as merely the absence of violence, she explores the biblical concept of shalom as flourishing, justice, right relationship, and the well-being of all creation. Drawing on Scripture, theology, and contemporary global realities, Isabelle challenges Christians to cultivate humility, attend to the stories of others, and embody Christ's reconciling work as active peacemakers.
