"Kindness as Power, Possibility, and Peace" - Romans 12:14-18, Matthew 5:1–11

We look at how true peace requires radical kindness (not just being nice), being able to see humanity and dignity in even our deepest of enemies. We acknowledge these relationships' deaths and believe that new life can be experienced. In conflicted times today, it is even more difficult to choose this path, but these are the times when we may need to most . . . and if we can't trust that the church can express new life, what are we doing? The sermon was delivered by guest preacher Reverend Bruce Reyes-Chow on March 3, 2024. The readers were from Romans 12:14-18 and Matthew 5:1–11.
