About Taming the Wolf Institute

Who Are We?

A non-profit dedicated to peacemaking. We integrate spirituality with the contemporary discipline of dispute resolution. The peacemaking legacy of Saint Francis of Assisi can be found in our training workshops, presentations, tutorials, manuals, books, and mediation or consultation services.

What is Our Goal?

We believe world peace takes root within individual hearts and then grows within the faith community. We seek to train individuals in faith-based conflict resolution. We seek to plant seeds of peace.

Who Was Saint Francis?

Saint Francis was a humble man who loved God and loved his “brothers and sisters.” He saw the divine in all creatures. His boundless compassion led him to reconcile feuding parties. Following his vision of peace, we apply the rich tradition of Christian spirituality to the conflict resolution discipline.

Why “Taming the Wolf”?

The legend of Saint Francis taming the fierce wolf of Gubbio captures a rich tradition of peacemaking. We believe true reconciliation only occurs when we take a spiritually transformative approach. Taming the Wolf: Peace through Faith presents a path to peace through spirituality.
