    Romans 12:17-21 "Dont repay Evil with Evil" (Friday 7/25/25)
    Jul 25 2025

    Romans 12:17–21 calls believers to reject the world’s instinct for revenge and instead embody the radical love of Christ. Paul urges us to live honorably, leave justice in God’s hands, and respond to enemies with kindness that disarms hostility. In doing so, we overcome evil not by mirroring it, but by conquering it with good, reflecting the mercy we’ve received from God.

    Matthew 18:15-17 "Redemption and Conflict" (Thursday 7/24/25)
    Jul 24 2025

    Matthew 18:15–17 teaches us the redemptive process of handling conflict among believers. Jesus outlines a loving progression: first, address the issue privately; if unresolved, involve one or two witnesses; and finally, bring it before the church if necessary. This passage reminds us that the goal is always restoration and reconciliation, not humiliation or exclusion.

  • Matthew 5:9,21-24 "Called to be Peacemakers" (Wednesday 7/23/25)

    Matthew 5:9,21-24 "Called to be Peacemakers" (Wednesday 7/23/25)
    Jul 22 2025

    In Matthew 5:9 and 21–24, Jesus calls His followers to be peacemakers who reflect the very heart of God and to go beyond mere outward obedience by addressing the anger and contempt that fuel broken relationships. He shows that reconciliation with others is so vital that it takes precedence even over the most sacred acts of worship. Kingdom living is relational at its core—seeking peace, forgiveness, and restored fellowship because it mirrors the character of our Father in heaven.
