“And now friends, go out into the world in peace, go back to work in peace, encounter the sacredness in the midst of the secular in peace. And as you go, remember that you never go alone, Christ our Lord walks with you every step of the way. And to his name be honor, glory and power, now and forever. Amen.”

Rev. Dr. Ted Wardlaw, Austin Seminary provided this blessing and benediction as part of a Facebook Live discussion with Rev. Dr. Lee Hinson-Hasty. You can watch the full interview here or listen to it as a Podcast here.
