Sometimes silence is golden. Other times it is a relationship killer. Two people are estranged. Angry. At odds. A friend intervenes with the suggestion, “Well, have you tried talking about it?” Reconciliation takes conversation, verbal interaction, words. Under the theme Love Talks: Daring Conversations Toward Reconciliation, the 2024 Theological Conference is designed especially for laity of all ages. The conference, which will take place on February 3 in Lansing (but livestreamed here at Christ Our King Lutheran), will equip you to engage in the ministry of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:18). The world around us needs us to engage with others in the ministry of reconciliation, both with people and with God. At the very heart of all reconciliation is the Word Himself, the Word made flesh, Jesus. Let’s get started with daring conversations of reconciliation. After all, love talks.
