Keeping the peace can look spiritual while actually undermining Christian unity through avoidance, uniformity, and unresolved division. Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez, pastor, justice worker, and author of False Peace, is on Christianity Without Compromise with host Jake Doberenz to discuss why the church must reject false peace and pursue a more honest vision of unity. Pricelis explains that Christian unity does not require agreement, sameness, or relational closeness, but it does require seeing others as image-bearers, approaching disagreement with curiosity, and discerning when boundaries or even division are necessary. She argues that the church’s habit of retreating into theological, political, and cultural tribes distorts the body of Christ and prevents Christians from learning how to live faithfully across real differences.
