This week, as we wrapped up our series, Resolving Everyday Conflict, Grant shared his final message, Getting Together to Discover Lasting Solutions, focusing on the crucial final principle: Reconciliation (the "Us" section of the God, Me, You, Us framework). He urged us to move from being mere peacekeepers to active peacemakers by seeking a lasting solution. True peace is found only in reconciliation, which Jesus showed is more important than worship (Matthew 5:23-24). It requires offering forgiveness (a choice to fully release the wrong) and the offender's repentance. Ultimately, this process builds a stronger relationship that reflects Christ’s reconciling work (2 Corinthians 5:18-20).

Matthew 5:23-24; 2 Corinthians 5:18-20; 1 Corinthians 10:31; Matthew 7:1-5; James 4:1-3; Ephesians 4:3.
