Wendy Konemann is on the board of Peacewise. She is a marriage and relationship counsellor, trainer, conflict coach, and mediator. We were so blessed to have her share with us as we considered Jesus’s call for us to be peacemakers.
‘I trained as a marriage counsellor, but I didn’t know how to deal with conflict in my own life. When I did the Peacewise training, God convicted me of my peacefaking.
‘I’m passionate about peacemaking because it’s through peacemaking that God has been transforming my life and taking me on a deep journey with him. I’ve had the privilege of coming alongside people in conflict and sharing Jesus with them in the midst of their conflict and journeying with them as God transforms their lives.
‘Conflict is an opportunity to introduce people to Jesus, and for us to go on a journey with God!’
