As believers in the Lord Jesus, the Prince of Peace, we wish to understand and practice the Biblical approach to bringing about peace. You will learn the ways people respond to conflict and the good opportunities God gives us when facing conflict. You will understand more deeply four great Biblical principles in peacemaking: to glorify God in conflict, to help all of us get the log out of our eye, to gently restore, and to go and be reconciled.
Together with Rev Dr Dennis L. Reiter you will study accountability in a church context as well as how to lead people through change without dividing the flock.

The publication of Tan Jin Huat's book 'Planting an Indigenous Church: The Case of the Borneo Evangelical Mission' is a welcome addition to the scholarly literature in the history of Christianity in Southeast Asia, in particular, Sarawak. According to Professor Brian Stanley, Professor of World Christianity in the University of Edinburgh, this work breaks new ground in some important respects.
The story of the BEM and the SIB highlights the importance of intentional mission policy and its sustained implementation for the development of an indigenous church. Having a clearly defined exit policy provided the necessary impetus for the BEM to plant a church which was able to stand on its own two feet. There have been a number of contextual factors, such as the administrative policies of the Brooke government and the changing political situations in Sarawak and Malaysia that threatened to limit the growth of the SIB. However, the ability of the indigenous leaders to take ownership of the Sidang Injil Borneo (SIB), have enabled them to negotiate these challenges in such a manner that has made it the most significant indigenous church in Malaysia.
In short, this work is a pioneering study of the origins and development of Malaysia's most significant indigenous church, the SIB.
