In this sermon, we explore what it means to be a peacemaker and why such people are considered blessed. Using Romans 12 and the book of Philemon, we look at making peace by offering ourselves as living sacrifices and by becoming bridges of reconciliation and peace. The work of Jesus was to make peace between God, all people, and all creation. Peace begins inside and then flows out of us into the world. The invitation to follow Christ is and invitation to join in this peace and peacemaking.
