Ambassadors of Reconciliation (AoR) is hosting a local in-person event (Regional Reception) for the Eastern Region. AoR is committed to help Christians and their churches live lifestyles of reconciliation by the power of the Gospel through the “ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself…and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, making his appeal through us.” (2 Cor. 5:18-20) We believe that God has called each person to live reconciled lives with everyone around them – with their spouse, family, co-workers, fellow church members, other believers – to the glory of God. What does it look like to live a lifestyle of reconciliation? What if I disagree with someone? What if I have been wronged? What if I just don’t understand someone else? What if someone is unnecessarily offended by my words? What does the Bible really teach about forgiveness? Does “sorry” really cover it? Do I have to completely trust someone who has broken my trust just because they apologize? What if I have been hurt by the church or by other Christians? What’s wrong with just ignoring the people in my life who I don’t get along with? Can’t we just go our separate ways without it being an issue of reconciliation? These questions influence our daily lives and our everyday relationships. What am I called to and what is just unrealistic? We hope to shed light on these important questions together.
This short but impactful event is held over a 24-hour period over 2 days. It promotes a time of fellowship with like-minded people, an opportunity to network and growing together over meals, main sessions and casual conversations. Longer workshops cover a variety of topics and help to answer some of the most relevant questions about relationships. Come join us June 7-8 in Cary, NC and walk away improving your own personal relationships for the unity of the Body and the testimony of Christ.
