Discover the Roots of Non-Resistance: Insights from the Grounded & Growing Podcast with Dean Taylor

by Jason | Jul 8, 2025 | Blog, Presidential Newsletter | 0 comments

In a world often marked by conflict and division, the principles of non-resistance offer a path toward peace and understanding rooted in the teachings of Jesus Christ.

As a guest on the Grounded & Growing podcast, Dean Taylor, President of Zollikon Institute, delves into the biblical definition of non-resistance. Drawing from Matthew 5:38–42, Dean says, “Non-resistance is about putting the teachings of Jesus, practically, in action.”

This episode explores the rich history of non-resistance in the early church, through church history, and examines non-resistance today. Dean also sheds light on how non-resistance compares with other perspectives within Anabaptism and broader Christian thought. These include pacifism and just war theory.

We invite you to tune in to this enlightening discussion between Dean and Julian Stoltzfus, host of Grounded & Growing. We appreciate the invitation to have President Taylor on the podcast.

Please consider joining us at Zollikon Institute, where we explore these vital topics in depth. For more information, reach out to us at
