Peacemaking

"Make peace, not war." Peacemaking Made Simple is a Bible-first guide to biblical peacemaking — not peacekeeping, not people-pleasing, not conflict avoidance, but the real, costly work of reconciliation that Jesus blessed in Matthew 5:9: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God." Across fourteen Scripture-led chapters, Kimani Upshur, M.Ed. walks through the difference between peacemaking and peacekeeping, peace with God as the foundation (Ephesians 2:14), the wisdom that makes peace (James 3:17-18), resolving conflict God's way (Matthew 18), the soft answer, forgiving as Christ forgave, the ministry of reconciliation, and peacemaking in marriage, family, church, and workplace — closing with honest counsel for when peace is not possible (Romans 12:18) and letting the peace of Christ rule as umpire (Colossians 3:15). Includes a 14-question peacemaker's appendix, a conclusion, and a closing prayer. Prayer is Trinitarian throughout: to the Father, through Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit. No pop psychology, no secular systems — Scripture leads, and the Prince of Peace does the making.
