When someone is invoking the Lord’s name or support, see if they are trying to be like Jesus, as the Primary song teaches: “Try to show kindness in all that you do. Be gentle and loving in deed and in thought.” 

For this 3 part bonus mini series, hosts Jennifer Thomas and Patrick Mason engage in a thoughtful conversation with Paul Lambert from the Wheatley Institute. Together, they explore the complex emotions and tensions that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints may experience when feeling attacked or judged.

In this special live episode of the Proclaim Peace podcast, host Jennifer Thomas is joined by Chad Ford to discuss peacemaking and discipleship. They discuss how we can find and build peace in a time of high conflict and in the wake of political violence. They draw on the teachings of Jesus to answer these questions and find ways that we can each be peacemakers in this moment, and how it can transform each of us personally, and transform our communities.
