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.

The last few weeks (months?) have felt so heavy — political violence, the nonstop news cycle and pace of politics, people in my life...

Spring brings hope for a more beautiful and peaceful world. Reflecting on peace and hope encourages peacemaking.

God helps us overcome discouragement and temptation, providing a way to escape and become conquerors.

Remembering past blessings and positive actions inspires hope for the future.

We are called to share truths, advocate for people and causes, and promote unity and love to build peace.
