On Tuesdays over Zoom we are reading and discussing the book, Healing our Broken Humanity, by Grace Ji-Sun Kim and Graham Hill. If you would like to participate, please email our pastor and she will get you a copy of the book as well as information so you can join Zoom.
This Week: Reconcile Relationships
Please read chapter 8 (pages 138-151), and consider these questions:
1. What is reconciliation?
2. The authors focus primarily on reconciliation in terms of racial/ethnic division in our world. What are some other societal divisions that require reconciliation?
3. On page 149 the authors write: “God calls the church to be a sign and herald of hope – to show the world what the world looks like in its reconciled and transformed state.” What does Walmer need to be doing to fulfill this calling?
From the back cover
Our broken world needs healing and hope, and Jesus calls us to be a peace-making and reconciling people. But how? Grace Ji-Sun Kim and Graham Hill offer Christian practices that can transform society, from lament and repentance to relinquishing power, reinforcing agency, and more. Embodying these practices enables us to be the new humanity in Jesus Christ, so the church and world can experience reconciliation, justice, peace, and love.
