    Stu G and co-host Brian Miller chat about "Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness and justice (dikaiosyne), for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven."

    Ep. 8 - Peacemakers

    Ep. 8 - Peacemakers

    Stu G and co-host Brian Miller ask, what does it look like to be Peacemakers in the world?

    We explore ideas around inner-peace and making peace with others. Stu talks about his experiences in The Holy Land with the Telos group as he learned about peacemaking in the Israeli Palestinian conflict. These visits to the Holy Land birthed a lot of what we know as The Beatitudes Project.

    We also chat about finding peace in a pandemic.

Crucial message for all of us

What a timely podcast! These pronouncements are precisely what we all need to hear and to love in right now. Massive thanks to Stu and Brian for taking the time to make these and publish them.

Re-think God with us

Pretty amazing stuff. Love the stories as well as the challenge to re-think what I thought I knew. The point in episode 2 which captured my attention the most was about how God interacts with us when we are at the bottom of life and His presence there even if we do not expect Him. The discussion about our expectations of God also caught my attention. So many people I know seem to expect nothing from Him.

You had me all in until episode 6

I discovered your podcasts after searching for inspiration online, since all the things I have seen, heard and read in 2020 have been such turmoil including the place we called our church home. The bonus episode didn’t make me search my heart about how I should respond to BLM and racism. Maybe it’s when in this series I am listening to it, but if this is the tone for the rest of the podcasts, I don’t think I can finish them. Before this episode I was greatly encouraged by the Beatitudes Project. Today, not so much.
