Plain Discipleship Wk 5: Sunil Joseph - Reconciliation Week - 25th May 2025

BRIDGING NOW TO NEXT

📖 Luke 6:37–42

Reconciliation is not a destination — it's a bridge we walk with Jesus.

As we obvserve National Sorry Day and Reconciliation Week, we’re reminded:

🧹 Clear the bridge — Let go of judgement and condemnation.

🕊 Fuel the bridge — Forgive boldly, give generously.

🌊 Shape the culture — Overflow with grace, not scarcity.

🔍 Look inward — Remove the log in our own eye before pointing to others.

Reconciliation isn’t symbolic. It’s relational, economic, structural — and spiritual.

This is our training: not to police morality but to build bridges of grace.

💭 The question is not: “Do you love your enemies?”

It’s: “Is your love liberating?”

This is the way of Jesus.

This is resurrection.

This is the now becoming next.

The Steeple Church Podcast is recorded on Wurundjeri land in the east suburbs of Naarm - that you will find on a map as Balwyn in Melbourne, Australia.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of these lands, the Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin Nation and we pay our respect to their Elders past, present and emerging.

Sovereignty was never ceded.
