    Remember always the beauty with which our souls came into this world – the gifts, the talents, and strengths -- are to accomplish the will of God for our lives in this world.

    The Weary World Rejoices: Jesus — Our Source Of Peace

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Jan 1, 2026
     | 73 views

    As we grow in our relationship with Christ—allowing Him to address the dissonance in our lives through His Spirit and His Word—we experience deeper freedom and greater peace.

    When we think about Christmas, many of us picture a peaceful scene—Mary and Joseph with the newborn Jesus, shepherds standing in awe, wise men kneeling with gifts, and animals quietly nearby. Or perhaps we think of families gathered around a Christmas tree, singing carols and opening presents. ...read more

    The world thinks that if they could just change their circumstances, they could avoid stress and worry... and could have the peace they crave. But Jesus said that won't work. In this world we are guaranteed to have trouble. But Jesus promises us a peace that the world cannot give.

    This is the last in our sermon series - entitled “One Thing”. We’ve been focusing on ONE WORD in Scripture that sums up a basic Bible truth, and today’s word is PEACE. Jesus said “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be ...read more
