The resource Guidelines for Christian Conciliation is a basic "rule book" that explains the conciliation process to disputing parties, answers common questions, provides procedural rules and a conciliator's standard of conduct, and explains how to write contract provisions that require future disputes to be resolved through conciliation rather than litigation. Several of the the sections found in the Guidelines for Christian Conciliation can also be found here:

• Introduction to Christian Conciliation
• Conciliation Clauses for Contracts and Wills
• Rules of Procedure for Christian Conciliation
• Model Mediation/Arbitration Agreement
• Standard of Conduct for Christian Conciliators
