151 | Are You Reaching Out With an Open Hand?

In this message, Pastor Paul Durbin walks through one of the most honest and hopeful topics in all of relationships — reconciliation. Using Romans 12:18 as the foundation, Paul defines reconciliation as moving toward an alienated relationship in gentleness and humility, hoping for peace, but knowing you cannot control the outcome. Through a short animated film and a simple but powerful matrix, Paul explores three tempting alternatives to real reconciliation — becoming cold, manipulative, or controlling — and calls Belay'ers back to the Jesus way: reaching out with an open hand. Because that's exactly what Jesus did for us.
