Confront isn’t about conflict for conflict’s sake, it’s about transformation.

In this message, Pastor Ryan Schlachter opens up Matthew 5:38–41, where Jesus confronts our desire for retaliation and control. The law said, “eye for eye,” but Jesus invites us into something deeper: a life where grace disarms offense and love silences revenge.

This isn’t weakness it’s courage. The courage to name our pain, resist passive silence, and choose dignity over dominance. Jesus doesn’t ask us to ignore injustice or absorb abuse. He shows us how to confront with clarity, restraint, and Spirit-empowered peace.

As we step into this new series, we’re reminded: confrontation in the Kingdom isn’t about proving a point it’s about pointing to a Savior. Turn the other cheek. Walk the second mile. Let go without losing yourself. These are revelations of a Kingdom heart.
