Mending the Divide

About this series

What comes to mind when you think of Christmas? For many of us, it’s things like festive decorations, shopping for gifts and family traditions. Those are all good, fun and special things, but Christmas is so much bigger than putting lights on a tree or picking out the perfect stocking stuffers.
In our current series, we’re discussing how Christmas is about God making everything right. Rather than a brief distraction from the problems of daily life, Christmas is a complete vision of everything flourishing. A vision of nations at peace with one another, of healing from centuries of racial injustice, of no more gaps between rich and poor and of whole families flourishing. Whether it’s the divide between us and God or the divides we have with other people, God has given us the ministry of reconciliation, of playing an active role in mending the divide.

About this message

We all have that person in our lives who’s hard to love. Maybe they’re a co-worker you’re stuck on a project with or a family member who’s coming to visit for Christmas. If you don’t know who that person is, maybe you’re the one who’s hard to love. Either way, God has given us the ministry of reconciliation. We are called to engage in redemptive conflict in the following ways:
1. Go – Go and bring up the conflict with the person you have the conflict with. They deserve to be the first to know.
2. Admit – Admit to your own share of ownership in the conflict.
3. Pray – Love your enemies and pray for them.
4. Stay – Stay committed to the relationship and don’t give up.
