What If Peace Isn't the Safe Option? (Part 6: Cultivating Peace)

We often imagine peace as something quiet, comfortable, and calm. But in Matthew 10, Jesus says something shocking:“I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.”What kind of peace is that?This Sunday, we’ll explore what it means to follow Jesus not into safety, but into sacrifice. We’ll venture into the trenches of World War I, hear Bonhoeffer’s warning about “cheap grace,” and most importantly, listen to Jesus as He calls us to a peace that is more costly—and more beautiful—than anything this world offers.If you’ve been holding back, clinging to comfort or avoiding risk, this message might be exactly what you need.Peace isn’t safe. But it is worth it.
