The Way of Peace on d365

When we hear the news about wars and conflict — whether in the Holy Land or in Ukraine or other places around the globe — we are shocked and saddened, and we may become overwhelmed or numb, or confused. How do we respond in faith? Christian pastors and advocates with connections to Palestine, Israel, Armenia, and Ukraine, as well as a Jewish Rabbi — all reflect on the theme, “The Way of Peace,” through this d365 devotional series that ran October 23rd – 29th. You can still access these devotionals at any time using the d365 search feature on the website or app by searching for the keyword “peace” or selecting one of the devotionals by date (October 23rd – 29th).
