When there is conflict, who is supposed to make the first move towards reconciliation? Is it the person who harmed the other, or the one who was grieved? In Matthew 5:23-24, Jesus tells us that reconciliation matters more than worship, so much that he tells the wronged party to go and make things right before bringing a gift to the altar. For most of us, that's easier said than done.

Are You A Peacemaker?
When it comes to conflict, do you run to it, or away from it? Is all conflict bad? Or is there something worth gaining from it? Jesus calls us to be peacemakers. This series starts with the hardest kind of conflict: the one with someone you're supposed to love.

The First Peacemaker
In John 13, we find Jesus doing the unexpected, taking on the form of a servant and washing his disciples' feet. Judas would betray him & Peter would deny him three times. And he did all of this knowing exactly what was coming. And still, he knelt down. Not for the ones who deserved it. For the ones who didn't. Join us this Sabbath as we participate in foot washing and communion.
