Furnace of Faith Finale: Carriers of Peace – Trudi Sayers

In this closing message of the Furnace of Faith season, Trudi reflects on four months of intentionally fixing our eyes on Jesus through winter and witnessing hearts opened, faith raised, and hunger stirred. God has been preparing Red to be a people ready for harvest, building prayer rhythms, raising up pillars of faith, and restoring vision for abundance. Stories of people meeting Jesus, unexpected conversations, and renewed hunger remind us that the ground is fertile and the season is ripe.

Looking ahead, Trudi points us to John 20:19–23: just as Jesus gave His disciples peace and sent them out, He now sends us as carriers of His shalom—wholeness, harmony, and life-transforming peace. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we are to advance with “shoes of readiness” to bring the gospel of peace into our city and beyond. The furnace has been ignited, and this is just the beginning.
