In the face of war, abuse, discrimination, genocide, we all long for peace - but that longing can only be fulfilled in knowing Christ and being a part of Christ’s people because in his death on the cross Christ has paid the cost of that peace. So the church - and ultimately humanity as a whole - can be at peace. As the church we can live at peace with one another by centrering our lives on Christ, the chief cornerstone of our community, and the One who paid the cost of peace.
