Can you think of a time in your life when you experienced profound peace? That is the kickoff question for the second podcast of our Open Doors Advent series as Jenn hosts Neal and Jacqueline in talking about the peace that Jesus brings.

The birth of Jesus can be described as: A message of peace from the heart of our Heavenly Father.

Neal encourages listeners to pursue a relationship with Jesus because He Himself is our peace (Ephesians 2:14). It was the intention of God to bring peace through the death and resurrection of Christ and when we encounter Him, He becomes our peace.

How do we approach the battles of life knowing that Jesus is our peace? “This is where the rubber meets the road,” says Neal. We are in a battle to trust God and remain in Him, so His peace may be present to us in all situations.

There will be times when we press in during a crisis and God breaks in and brings peace in the midst of a conflict. When we allow Jesus to be our peace, He is our hope for reconciliation with one another or any division we can think of right now.

Jesus left His place with the Heavenly Father, bringing peace into the darkness of earth. He pursued us. With Jesus’ light and peace, we too can dispel the darkness.
