What does it mean to be a peacemaker in a world that often chooses division? In Week 4 of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor Reid explores the final Beatitudes from Matthew 5:9–12, where Jesus blesses both peacemakers and the persecuted.
Peacemaking isn't about avoiding conflict—it's about actively restoring relationships, first with God, then with others. And often, it comes at a cost.
Discover what true peace looks like, how Jesus modeled it, and why it’s worth it—even when it leads to pushback.
📖 Main Passage: Matthew 5:9–12
🎯 Big Idea: Peacemakers may face persecution, but they are never without purpose.
🕊️ Make peace with God. Be a peacemaker for others.
