How To Be a Peacemaker | Speaker: Amberly Neese
Most of us can relate when it comes to navigating divisive conversations with those at work, church, or even at home. It doesn’t take longer than a scroll on Instagram or a tap on a news channel app to be flooded with the political and relational tensions around you. Creating peace in a divisive world sounds challenging, doesn’t it?
Amberly shares how being a peacemaker amid conflict serves as a way of finding common ground in conversations.

Challenge: Practice the SLOW method in your conversations:
- State in your own words (restate the other’s “side” in your own respectful verbiage).
- List similarities (articulate common ground between both sides of the discord).
- Observe positives or show gratitude (thank the other for taking the time and sharing).
- Work to learn and be light (keep Jesus’ prayer in mind that we would be united despite our differences).
