Peace is more than the absence of conflict. Through Jesus' words in the Beatitudes, Rev. Josh Landen explores the difference between keeping peace and making peace, showing how Christ reconciles us to God and calls us to courageously pursue reconciliation with others, even at personal cost.

As Pastor Paul Lawler delivers his final sermon as Senior Pastor of Christ Methodist Church, he challenges the congregation to consider what it means to be ready for God's next chapter. Through Jesus' parable of the wineskins, he calls believers to hold fast to the unchanging gospel, remain teachable, and embrace their calling to make disciples.

God’s blessings were never meant to stop with us. As generosity takes root in the life of the Church, God’s provision becomes an overflow that meets real needs, creates joy, strengthens community, and makes the gospel visible to the world.

What can God do with what you’re willing to place in His hands? Through the widow’s two coins and Paul’s picture of sowing and reaping, we discover that generosity is ultimately an expression of faith—trusting God with what we have even when we cannot yet see the harvest.
