Most men think “keeping the peace” is a virtue. In reality, it is often just fear of losing comfort. In this Dangerous Discipline episode, Rory goes straight at the lie of peacekeeping and exposes how fake peace is quietly destroying marriages, training kids to be weak, and draining spiritual authority from a man’s life.
You will learn the difference between a peacekeeper who avoids conflict and a peacemaker who enters conflict with courage, truth, and conviction. We break down the habits of both, why God calls men to wage war for real peace, and how to start stepping into hard conversations instead of running from them.
If your default move is to stay quiet, smooth things over, and “not rock the boat,” this episode is your wake-up call.
3. QOTD – Quote of the Day
“True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice.” – Martin Luther King Jr.
5. SOTD – Scripture of the Day (ESV)
Matthew 5:9 (ESV)
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.”
Habits of a Peacekeeper
- Avoids hard conversations until things blow up.
- Says “it’s fine” when it’s clearly not fine.
- Protects feelings at the expense of souls.
- Buries tension, then resents everyone in silence.
Habits of a Peacemaker
- Confronts issues directly and calmly.
- Tells the truth, even when it makes the room tense.
- Sets and enforces clear boundaries.
- Fights for restoration, not ego or “winning.”
