Bible Text: Isaiah 59:1-8; II Corinthians 5:16-21 | Pastor: Lynn Thompson Bryant | Reconciliation is a very powerful word.  It actually has the ability to help us when we have felt broken, it has the ability to show us in times of stress, or crisis, or confusion, or pain, that a new learning or some enhanced clarity to help us feel whole again might be just around the corner.  When we remember the value of feeling supported by one another we receive that extension of God’s grace.  We long for that connection not just because it feels good to us, but because God has commissioned us to be those ambassadors of God’s peace and reconciliation.
