The Bible teaches that we should see conflict neither as an inconvenience nor as an occasion to force our will on others, but rather as an opportunity to demonstrate the love and power of God in our lives.

Ken Sande

Ken Sande (* 1955) ist ein US-amerikanischer Jurist, Autor und Mediator aus dem evangelikalen Spektrum, der 1982 die Organisation Peacemaker Ministries gründete. Bekannt wurde er durch sein Buch The Peacemaker sowie Modelle zur biblischen Konfliktbewältigung, die auf persönlicher Schuldanerkennung und Versöhnung beruhen. Während seine Leitfäden die christliche Seelsorge und Konfliktberatung nachhaltig prägen, wird an solchen Schlichtungsverfahren kritisiert, dass sie bei Machtmissbrauch und Gewalt zu Lasten des Schutzes von Betroffenen gehen können.
