Blessed are the Peacemakers

•

What we’re doing isn’t helping–none of it seems to be helping. We still remain so divided. Cancelling each other isn’t helping, not recognizing each other’s humanity isn’t helping. It’s only fueling our anger and clouding our judgement. We’re being consumed by one another. Revenge feels great!...but it doesn’t work. So how do we free ourselves from the gridlock of binary thinking? How can we discover our humanity together? Just imagine what we could do if we recognized the humanity in ‘the other’ to an extent that when they fall, we try to understand them and their pain before we judge each other. It takes patience. To be still. To stop. And to let those thoughts pass you by. To live and let live. We acknowledge it’s not easy. Hell, it’s not easy for us at all. Any of us. We’re right there in the mud with you, trudging down this narrow path. It’s a difficult road but we think it’s the better way.


**Please note there were some recording hiccups, frustratingly both in the video and Audio. We did our best to iron these out but some of it was unable to be fixed. Please bear with us as we try to iron out these hiccups in our continuing journey of YouTube Live. We’re working on it!**


This talk was given on June 19, 2022 in Seattle, WA.

  • God or ?

    01:00:43|
    Ever found yourself at the mercy of a car repair bill? I was too... until I learned something powerful. Tag someone who needs to hear this! Last week, my car's engine light turned on, and I was quoted $5,000 for repairs. 😳 But instead of panic, I reached out for help in my community. With the right resources and some guidance, I managed to fix it for just $300! It's incredible how necessity pushes us to learn new skills. I never thought I’d be doing mechanic work, but here I am! The best part? We’re all in this together. Community isn’t just local; it’s global. When we share knowledge, we empower each other. What skills have you learned from necessity? Let's keep this conversation going! revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_199www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url#CommunitySupport #DIYMechanics #LearningTogether #Gratitude #CarRepair

    Ever had a car problem that felt like the end of the world? I just faced a $6,000 repair bill. Here's what I learned:🚗 Tag someone who needs to hear this!Life threw me a curveball when my car went into limp mode right after my kids returned from a great trip to the Grand Canyon. With a check engine light flashing and a hefty repair estimate looming, panic set in. But here's the twist: I reached out for help and got connected with a mechanic who guided me to fix it for just $300 instead! This experience taught me the importance of community support and resourcefulness. Instead of spiraling into debt, I took control and learned something new—how to fix my car. Life isn't always easy, but it’s all about finding solutions and leaning on each other. Have you ever faced a financial scare? What did you do? Let’s share our experiences and support one another in this crazy ride called life!
