Becoming a Peacemaker

Jalila’s hands shook as she described how she’d been estranged from her cousin for over a decade.

Stacy, a Frontiers field worker, had recently shared some practical tools for peacemaking with Jalila. After they talked and prayed about it, Jalila decided to take the first steps to mend the broken relationship. She spent time examining her heart. She even forgave her cousin in her heart.

But Jalila was still afraid to speak to her cousin.

Interpersonal conflict can be complicated. Its resolution doesn’t have to be.

Like Jalila, you may know how confusing, chaotic, and complicated conflict can be. Perhaps you struggle to make sense of it. Like many others, maybe the reason you haven’t resolved your conflicts is simply because you don’t know how to take helpful steps toward peace.

Through Stacy’s ministry, Jalila is learning to take those steps. She’s discovering that God can give her humility and grace to reconcile with her cousin.

Stacy and her teammates use a resource called Peace Pursuit to help their Muslim friends learn about peacemaking.

Peace Pursuit is a free, biblical, practical model that provides clarity in the peacemaking process. This model seeks to honor God and others while helping you navigate conflict with confidence and hope.

Jalila spent a decade not talking to her dear cousin. Now she’s discovering the hope of being reconciled with her loved ones—through a biblical resource that lifts up Jesus Christ as the source of hope.

If you have unresolved conflict in your life, you can give Peace Pursuit a try—just like Jalila is doing. It will build your confidence to find peace in even your most difficult relationships.
