APF Video: Congregational Peacemaking (APFTV-002)
We're back with Episode 2 of this little cinematic experiment. Some things worked better this time (I learned I need to look at the camera and stop saying "um"), and some things went downhill (natural lighting during toddler's nap kept changing as clouds rolled off Lake Michigan carried by the stiff wind).
In this episode, I address -- though not exactly answer -- a question posted by a viewer after Episode 1: How can congregations be involved with peacemaking? Here is the video, and resources are listed down below it.
