Use the questions and ideas below to guide your reflection and conversation on this month's topic.

"Faith reflections" discussion questions by Brooke Petersen

1. Where do you see a lack of positive peace in your neighborhood? Do you see a place where your church or family might have an impact?

2. When you read the Beatitudes, what strikes you as most surprising? Do any of Jesus’ words make you uncomfortable?

3. What are some examples of peace-making in your own life? When have you chosen peace? What are some ways you can talk about those experiences with your family or friends?

4. Are there times in your life when you have stayed satisfied with an absence of conflict instead of the positive peace that King talks about? What did you learn from those experiences?
