  • Peace Grows
    2024/12/08
    In this sermon, we explore the concept of peace as presented in the Gospel of Luke 2:8-14. Unlike the fleeting peace of the world, rooted in external circumstances, we delve into the profound and enduring peace, or shalom, that comes from Jesus Christ. By examining the transformation of peace from the Roman Empire's Pax Romana to the peace proclaimed by angels at Jesus's birth, we uncover how true peace is found not in the absence of conflict but in the presence of God. Join us this Advent season as we seek the Prince of Peace and allow His presence to transform our lives.
