The Shoes of Peace: Standing Firm in the Gospel | Ephesians 6:14–15 | Union City Wesleyan Church
In this message on the shoes of peace from Ephesians 6:14–15, Pastor Dan Maurer looks at how the gospel of peace gives us firm footing to stand against the enemy and the readiness to carry that peace to others. Part of the Armor of God series, "Ephesians: A Church Alive in Christ."
Like a Roman soldier's cleated sandals, the shoes of peace do two jobs: they plant our feet so we can stand our ground, and they make us ready to move. That peace isn't a feeling we work up — it's a gift Christ purchased at the cross for those near and those far off. And the same peace that steadies us is the peace worth carrying to someone else.
We are not God's attorneys, hired to win the argument. We are His witnesses, simply telling what He has done, while the Holy Spirit does the real work of drawing people home. So we don't lose hope — not even for the ones we've prayed over for thirty years. Christ is your peace: plant your feet on it, and carry it to your one more.
