Summary

In this episode of the Dad Tired podcast, join host Jerrad Lopes as he delves into the profound message of Matthew 5:9, where Jesus proclaims, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God." Far from being timid or passive, Jerrad emphasizes that being a peacemaker demands immense courage and humility. Making direct ties back to the Gospel, Jerrad highlights how God the Father boldly confronted humanity's sin problem rather than shying away from it. As men, we are called to follow in God's footsteps, actively seeking out conflicts in our lives and boldly addressing them in pursuit of true peace.Join the Dad Tired community as they explore the transformative power of stepping into conflicts with courage and grace, embodying the very essence of being "sons of God." Tune in to gain valuable insights and practical wisdom on embracing the mantle of peacemakers and positively influencing the world around us.
