Western Theological Seminary is thrilled to introduce the new Graduate Certificate in Restorative Justice. In partnership with the Hope-Western Prison Education Program (HWPEP), this certificate program lays a foundation for restorative justice ministries and restorative practices in the Christian faith.
On the blog today, Dr. David Stubbs, Professor of Ethics and Theology and Co-Director of the HWPEP, shares the vision behind the new Graduate Certificate in Restorative Justice. Read the full story by visiting westernsem.edu/introducing-t….
