A Peace of Me

Cultivate Peace

Jesus had Jerusalem in his hands. Israel was ripe for rebellion. Using nothing more than his words, Jesus could have stirred up a revolution. Using the full weight of his power, he could have ended Rome in an instant (Matthew 26.53). The political implications of Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem were palpable for his followers, and throughout the week more and more of Jerusalem began to wonder who this man was and what he would do. In this series, we will discuss what peace is, how we cultivate inner peace and how we live as makers of peace.

Cultivate Podcast

Join HPUMC's Rev. Matt Tuggle and Hannah Buchanan for the Cultivate Podcast where they sit down with nine people throughout the year to discuss the nine fruits of the Spirit. These nine fruits are described by Paul in Galatians 5:22-23 as what it looks like to cultivate a life with God where the Holy Spirit can grow good things in us and around us.

The series continues with Episode 3: Cultivate Peace with John Waters, M.D., assistant professor, UT Southwestern Medical Center Division of Thoracic Surgery. Dr. Waters and Rev. Tuggle discuss reconciling reason and science with faith and God and how that can bring about a sense of peace within you.
