“To make peace is not a passive endeavor, but rather an activist mindset that works toward the end of conflict. In our world, it is not the soldier but the activist who calls for peace.”

“Has God called you to speak out for peace in a tense situation? Are there lives on the line God is calling you to stand up for, to declare peace to, and to encourage toward a non-violent solution?If so, do it. You never know what might happen. Maybe the Lord is likewise sending you to save many lives from destruction.”

“We often forget that calling for peace is the most courageous act we can take. It’s easy to call for revenge, to claim injustice, and to launch an attack. It’s much more difficult to forgive, to call for peace, to lay down weapons.”

“The applause of the audience is short-lived. When calls resound for an encore, we are called to direct our attention to our Master.”

“God repeatedly uses the least-likely and least-prepared individuals (ourselves included) to make the deepest impact on our world.”

“In humility, we find our true calling and our greatest honor.”

“Let us join Him in accomplishing His will today rather than our own.”
