Peace and Safety in the Christian Home (PASCH) is a coalition of internationally renowned Christian researchers, scholars and theologians who have joined together to increase peace and safety in the Christian home and in the world it serves by addressing and decreasing domestic and sexual abuse in those homes.
PASCH seeks to accomplish this through:
- Prayer: Our objective is to establish an international prayer network of people desiring to see domestic and sexual abuse eliminated in the Christian home and community.
- Collaboration: Our objective is to identify and collaborate with already existing individuals and organizations committed to ending domestic and sexual abuse in the Christian home and community. Prayerfully, this may establish a central place to link Christians working to eliminate abuse.
- Resources: Our objective is to identify and disseminate already existing resources that address our mission and to develop resources where none exist.
- Education and Training: Our objectives are:
- To raise awareness of the Biblical mandate for peace and safety in the Christian home and community.
- To raise awareness of the extent of the problem of domestic and sexual abuse in the Christian community.
- To provide education, training and resources that specifically address and provide solutions to the problem of abuse in the Christian home and community.
- To host an international conference annually or bi-annually where Christian educators, theologians, service providers, clergy, para-church organizations, law enforcement personnel, and lay persons (both those providing help and needing help), can convene to create vision, share resources, and stimulate further advancement in the arena of ending domestic and sexual abuse in the Christian home and community.
I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.
Psalms 4:8
