Show Notes

Retaliation isn't something we resist in our own strength, it's something we surrender to Jesus.

Brittany Smigielski unpacks the radical call of Matthew 5:38–42, where Jesus confronts our instinct for revenge and invites us into a higher way, the way of peacemaking.

Turning the other cheek, giving more than what's asked, walking the second mile are not passive responses. They are powerful acts of love rooted in Heaven's logic.

Peacemaking is not weakness, it's courage clothed in grace. IHumility that confronts hurt, generosity that disrupts greed, and service that silences oppression.

This is the way of the cross. The way Jesus lived. The way we're called to follow.
