Guest speaker: John Pavlovitz

Individually and as a nation we are experiencing a shaking. We now have the opportunity to be peace givers and not fear bringers, and to learn, as did the followers of Jesus, how to endure the turbulence and how, at times, to become the turbulence. How can we leverage our lives to bring peace to those who are shaking?
