Blessed Are The Peacemakers

The Online Forum on Youth Ministry

Saturday, October 5, 2024
12-5 p.m. ET

Young people are growing up in a culture in desperate need of peacemakers.

Some young people are hearing a prophetic call and are eager to be equipped for the peacemaking work ahead. Some are in the direct path of violence and need courageous leaders to make peace urgently. Some are being saturated by ideas that may contort Jesus’ words into the shape of violence itself.

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” (Matthew 5:9)

With these words, Jesus declared to all who gathered to hear his Sermon on the Mount that peacemakers bear the family resemblance that marks them as God’s own. They are not passive witnesses who are content with a mere absence of conflict. They are actively making peace like they’ve learned from their Divine Parent, engaging in the kind of work that honors the dignity and flourishing of God’s whole creation.

The Online Forum on Youth Ministry is a one-day gathering where Christian leaders, parents, teachers, coaches, volunteers, and youth workers will explore Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:9. Join us for a day of worship, workshops, lectures, and discussions about peacemaking in our world!
