This Advent, we’ll explore the good news that Jesus came to bring peace to a fractured and weary world. Each week we’ll trace God’s promise of peace from the prophets to the angels’ song, to the path Christ sets before us, and finally to the peace He creates among His people. Join us for this four-week series—culminating on Christmas Eve—as we celebrate the One who is our peace and invites us to rest in Him. “Christ Our Peace” – begins Sunday, November 30
