JFI's Certificate program includes both graduate and undergraduate options and focuses on theology of peace and justice, the inner transformation of a peacemaker, the role of religion in peace and violence, and practical peacebuilding and conflict transformation.

This program is for any thoughtful person who wants to enhance their theology of peace and justice, expand their practical peacebuilding skills, and pay more attention to their inner transformation as peacemakers. Its courses include a robust and well-organized online interface, video conferences with our amazing Guest Lecturers, creative and thought-provoking assignments, readings that will challenge you and expand your knowledge, lectures from our Core Faculty that are synchronized with Keynote presentations to simulate the classroom experience as much as possible, and a variety of informative and subversive high-quality video clips — most of them from our partner and friends at The Work of the People.

Our Certificate encourages a mature subversiveness, valuing mystery and truth, beauty and practicality, paradox and integrative thinking, vulnerability and courage, hospitality and an identity forged in the crucible of a peaceable kingdom whose King sits on a cruciform throne. If this appeals to you, we encourage you to get ahold of us today.
