Making Peace With God Series

Contributed by Jerry Owen on Oct 4, 2017

The world is always searching for peace, but cannot ever seem to grasp it. If a person really wants to have peace in the world, it must begin with him personally making his peace with God.

MAKING PEACE WITH GOD I often hear of people that on their deathbed want to make their peace with God. There is a great truth found in their statement and a great misunderstanding.

Peace: The Gift Of Peace Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 23, 2012

God's peace is relational, not circumstantial. It is active and not passive. The Lord actively dispenses peace to those who minds are stayed upon Him. So keep our focus on Him and keep on praying.

John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” It is not the Lord’s will for us to be troubled and in fear. He wants to give us peace. Peace is what everyone needs. ...read more

And I know what ...read more

Peace-Ing Together Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Jun 4, 2015

The mission of Jesus and his disciples is to bring peace, harmony, wholeness (Shalom) to the chaos and brokenness of people. Jesus demonstrates this on the Sea of Galilee as he heads for the "other side" to fulfill that mission.

1. What if. . . a. . . . Our congregation ceased to exist? Would our community know? Would they care? Would the kingdom of heaven be impacted by our absence? b. . . .

Irrational Peace

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 29, 2014

"The peace of God which transcends all understand" is, in essence, irrational peace! A peace which can be experienced by Christians but which the world cannot comprehend. This text shows us that we can have this peace when we know Jesus as Savior!

Philippians 4:6-8 “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” “Finally ...read more
