When my son attended law school, he was obligated to take a course in mediation. He loved it. The objective, of course, is to bring two people together, sharing their side of the story, then helping them to see ways they could regulate the problem by mutual agreement. They wanted to avoid standing before the judge, or worse yet, before a jury. When I read Scriptures like the following I think of my son who was the one who laid his hand on both parties and brought them together. He told me he saw so many marriages restored and relationships regulated.
32 For He is not a man, as I am, That I may answer Him, and that we should go to court together. 33 Nor is there any mediator between us, who may lay his hand on us both (Job 9:32, 33).
