SERMON SERIES

Overcoming Obstacles to Peace
Peace. That’s the first message that Jesus gave his fearful followers after his resurrection. And that’s no surprise. After all, peace is also one of the final messages that he gave them on the night that he was betrayed. In the midst of our dark thoughts and crippling anxiety, Jesus still speaks peace.
The problem is that it doesn’t end with Jesus. We’re called to go and do likewise. Jesus says, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God,” (Matthew 5:9). In a world divided by conflict, violence, and war, we show that we are God’s children by making peace.
Yet, there is so much that gets in the way of making peace. Join us as we delve into some of the common obstacles to peacemaking like complacency, resentment, and coveting. It all begins with receiving the peace of Christ into our own hearts. Only then can we get into the hard work of making peace in our world.
