Break Shame By Confessing Together
- Do practice public confession and transparency so the Spirit can bring healing to hidden brokenness.
- Louis had the congregation raise hands about anxiety to break shame and model communal vulnerability for healing.
Shalom Means Full Wholeness Not Just Calm
- Shalom is deeper than emotion; it is full wholeness — right with God, self, others, and environment.
- Louis points to John 20 where resurrected Jesus says shalom and breathes on disciples as reintroduction of restored fellowship.
Turn From Evil Then Pursue Peace
- Do turn away from evil, do good, then intentionally seek and pursue peace.
- An elder's counsel is cited: calling evil by name (pride, lust, comparison) and actively pursuing peace is necessary for shalom.
