at the service of the Gospel and culture
1. Be at peace with yourself. Even as God calls you to growth and progress, God loves you as you are. You have worth beyond measure, for you are a child of God.
2. Don’t make war with parts of yourself that you can’t change. Accept your shadow side, your brokenness, your weaknesses, as well as your strengths. Inner peace unifies the parts into wholeness.
3. Ground yourself in values that you’ve chosen with intent and deliberation. Then determine where your own attitudes and actions are at war with those values. Only you can end the conflict.
4. Recognize if you’ve made resentment, distrust, hostility your armor against a world that has hurt you in the past. Commit yourself to remove this armor, piece by piece.
12. Peace sees similarities among people, not threatening differences that form barriers. Identify a difference—a value, an attitude, a choice—that threatens you. Don’t judge that difference, but seek to understand it.
13. Terrible wars have begun over the control of territory and the exercise of power. Consider your own need to possess and have power over others. The more you can let go of this need, the less reason you have to disturb the peace by acts of violence. You can become a bridge instead of a border patrol.
