Listen "Blessed Are the Peacemakers"
Episode Synopsis
Click/tap here to view the Sermon Reflection Guide. In this week’s sermon on Matthew 5:9-10, we explore the deep meaning of shalom—a peace that is more than just the absence of conflict but the presence of wholeness, justice, and the right relationship with God and others. Jesus calls us to be peacemakers, not by passively avoiding confrontation, but as active agents of reconciliation in a broken world. True peacemaking often leads to resistance, even persecution, because it challenges systems of injustice and selfishness. Yet Jesus reminds us that those who pursue peace and righteousness are blessed and belong to the kingdom of heaven. As followers of Christ, we are called to embody God's peace wherever we go. Is there a specific issue or injustice you feel deeply passionate about? That burden may be more than a feeling—it could be God’s invitation to lean in, take action, and bring shalom to the world around you.
