114 | The Gift Of Peace : An Advent Invitation

As we step into this Advent week focused on Peace, many of us are already feeling the chaos of the Christmas season. In the middle of all the noise, Jesus reminds us, “My peace I give you… Do not let your hearts be troubled” (John 14:27). And Isaiah calls Him the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6)—not just for quiet moments, but for real life, right in the mess and busyness. So today, we want to take a breath together, slow everything down, and remember that God’s peace isn’t something we have to earn or create. It’s something He offers, even when our world feels anything but peaceful.

Hector and Norma Melendez join us to share how they choose to walk with the giver of Peace not only in their daily lives, but especially in the busyness of the Holiday season. It was an honor to have this conversation with them. We pray you too are encouraged as you listen.

“I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.” 

‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭27‬ ‭NLT‬‬
