June 21, 2026 – Peace That Doesn’t Run Away


There’s a difference between peacekeepers and peacemakers. Peacekeepers avoid conflict. Peacemakers pursue reconciliation. One preserves appearances. The other pursues healing. Jesus said, “Blessed are the peacemakers.” Come discover why peace isn’t the absence of conflict but the presence of God’s restoring work in the middle of it.
