Our Methods
IDENTIFICATION OF AND APOLOGIES for historical Christian offenses that affect relationships today.
IDENTIFICATION OF CONTEMPORARY behavior and ideologies that confuse national self-interest with the values of Jesus Christ; especially examples of such behavior and ideology that are explicitly supported as if they were morally Christian by ill-advised representatives of the Christian faith.
EDUCATION OF CHRISTIANS and followers of Christ who may then make better judgments in the future.
GRASSROOTS ENCOUNTERS between Western Christians and those who are alienated from Christ's faith. It is our conviction that introducing historical enemies in face-to face encounters contributes to peace and better understanding of each other and one another's faiths. Face-to-face encounters undermine historical myths and abstract constructions of enmity that permit violence against others when seen only as a group.
HUMANITARIAN SERVICE to others, especially historical enemies. Service emphasizes the human value of others.
