Description
Peace Isn’t Passive. Want real peace? Be the peacemaker.
In today’s episode of the Habits of Hope Podcast, we’re diving deep into Matthew 5:9 to explore what Jesus really meant when He said, “Blessed are the peacemakers.”
This isn't about keeping the peace—it’s about biblical conflict resolution that reflects the heart of God.
We’ll talk about:
- Peacemaking is an active, courageous choice.
- Avoiding conflict does not lead to true peace.
- Jesus exemplified the role of a peacemaker.
- Peacemakers are called children of God for their actions.
- Conflict resolution is about restoring relationships, not winning arguments.
- Personal experiences can illustrate the importance of peacemaking.
- Clarity comes from honest and intentional communication.
- Avoiding hard conversations can affect your health and energy.
- We can choose our discomfort in the pursuit of peace.
- Prayer is a powerful tool in seeking reconciliation.
