Working for Peace

One look at the world around us and it’s clear: peace isn’t going to make itself.

Nations are warring and people are fighting and arguing. You may even have some personal relationships filled with bitterness and contempt. Thankfully, we can lean into Jesus’ wisdom in the seventh beatitude:

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”
Matthew 5:9 NIV

Let's be clear: peacemaking is different from peacekeeping. In fact, Jesus assured us that as long as we’re on this earth, we will face trouble. There will be chaos, division, misunderstandings, and a need for making peace. And that is why… 

Peacemaking requires action.

Yes, peacemaking compels us out of our comfortable bubbles. But for those who are willing to step into the tender space of making peace, here are some thoughts to help you lead the way:

- Peacemakers lead the way with humility. None of us are perfect and we all need grace. None of us are God, but we all need Him. Leading with a posture of humility is key.

- Peacemakers lead the way with empathy. Even when we disagree with someone, respectfully listening and seeking to understand their perspective is essential for making peace.

- Peacemakers lead the way with truth and grace. Any time Jesus interacted with people, He did so with both truth and grace. We must have both to accurately represent Him.

- Peacemakers lead the way to the feet of Jesus. Apart from Him, we can do nothing. Apart from Him, we are nothing. When we realize our mutual brokenness, as well as our mutual need for Christ, everything can change.

Seeking to be a mediator for those in disagreement doesn’t mean that every problem will be solved—immediately or ever. But when we invite God into those spaces and commit to the hard work of peacemaking, He can do more than we can imagine.

Myself, my Dad…and our dream cars.

Back when I was just a young kid I told him that one day I’d get him his red Porsche 911.

I thank God every day I was able to follow through on that promise.

I may never get a Grammy or be invited to an award show or get to play the Super Bowl…but THIS picture…is all of those things combined to me.

Chase your dreams. A lot of things can go wrong…but sometimes it all goes right.

Charlie Kirk assassination audio trend continues on TikTok and across social media. Naima is now PERMABANNED from ever appearing on the Whatever Podcast again. These people are truly sick. It’s evil and demonic. I am calling on TikTok and all social media platforms to ban this audio. They need to take action against this.
