The timing of Jesus' birth is amazing. The prophecies in the Old Testament regarding the Messiah's heritage and location of birth required meeting formidable odds, and yet, Jesus' mother was who she needed to be, and they and Joseph were where they needed to be at the time of His birth. Pastor Ricky will be teaching on how the orchestration of the confluence of these events shows the sovereignty of God. This is also a reminder that God knows where we are and has us on this earth for His reasons as well.

In Philippians 4:1–9, Paul invites us to lift our eyes to what is eternal, tend to what is happening internally, and live it out externally in our daily lives. This passage challenges us to face conflict, anxiety, and disappointment with peace rooted in knowing how the story ends. As Paul calls us to rejoice, pray instead of replay our worries, and fix our minds on what is good, we're reminded that God's peace actively guards our hearts and shapes how we show up in the world.OUTLINE:Eternal   4:1-3Internal  4:4-7External 4:8-9 QUESTIONS:4:1-3 Does knowing that your name is written in the “Book of Life” change the way you approach conflict, anxiety and disappointment right now?

CP459 - Jesus is the WAY - Advent PeaceAdvent is a season of hope and expectation. It's a time to prepare for the coming of Christ, to reflect on the year that has passed, and to look forward to the promises of Christmas. Advent has its roots in the Old Testament, where it was celebrated as the time when the Israelites would prepare for the coming of the Messiah. The word "advent" actually comes from the Latin word "adventus", meaning "to come" or "to arrive."..---At Church Public we create compelling content to equip you to follow Jesus and engage in the public square including Current Events from a Christian Perspective.Thanks for watching!

December 21, 2025 : Advent - Peace1 Peter 5

For centuries, followers of Jesus have participated in Advent during the weeks leading up to Christmas. Advent, a word meaning "arrival," is a season where we rehearse the story of God — recognizing that the story of Jesus is not one story among many that we choose from, but its the story of reality. For the next 4 weeks leading up to Christmas, we will slow down together, ponder, contemplate, and participate in Jesus-centered practices… helping us make room to celebrate the Hope, Peace, Joy and Love of God revealed through the birth of Jesus. In this week's message, Associate Pastor Kelsey Weller continues our series by exploring the theme of peace. We'd love to connect with you!

ADVENT | Peace You Cannot Cancel | Pastor Mark Lyons | Sunday, December 14, 2025

Pastor Terry Brown teaches that true peace is far more than a feeling or cultural symbol—it is a fruit of the Holy Spirit, reconciliation with God through Christ's coming (Advent peace), and the personal gift of Jesus' own peace. Using humor and Scripture, he contrasts counterfeit “hippie peace” and seasonal chaos with the biblical peace that produces both internal calm and harmonious relationships, ultimately bridging the gap between God and mankind through the cross.

1. BEFORE JESUS BRINGS PEACE TO THE WORLD, HE MUST END OUR WAR WITH GOD 2. THE PRINCE OF PEACE WINS PEACE BY ENTERING OUR BROKENNESS 3. BECAUSE THE KING HAS MADE PEACE WITH GOD, WE CAN NOW LIVE IN PEACE WITH OTHERS 4. PEACE BECOMES OUR MESSAGE TO A WAR-TORN WORLD Where are you still at war with God? Who do you need to pursue peace with? Will you let Christ's peace rule your heart this Christmas? Who are you going to bring this message of peace to?

Come and celebrate Advent at Bright City Church! Each week, we'll observe the different themes of Advent in preparation for Christmas. Listen to this week's sermon with Pastor Alex Regalado as he engages the second theme of Advent: Peace.

And here's part two! This Bible study explores Advent hope and peace, but through the unlikely angle of fear, grief, expectations, legacy, and more. What do we have faith in? What are we working for? And how can we hold on to hope and become peacemakers in the face of so much stacked against it?

Advent // Peace Our Whole Existence is Ravaged by ConflictIt's in Our World...It's in Our Nations...It's in Our Cities...It's in Our Communities...It's in Our Homes...It's in Our Hearts and Our Minds... Peace Means So Many Different Things to Different PeoplePeace May Be Ease from Conflict...Peace May Be Ease from Noise...Peace May Be Ease from Torment...Peace May Be Ease from Busyness...Peace May Be Ease from Pain... For Some People It May Be Found in A Treaty…For Some It May Be Found in a Place…For Some It May Be Found in An Embrace…For Some It Is Found in a Symbol…For Some It Is Found in Solace…For Some It Is Found in A Smile… Some Think It Is Accomplished by Negotiation...Some Think It Is Accomplished by Meditation...Some Think It Is Accomplished by Separation...Some Think It Is Accomplished by Location...Some Think It Is Accomplished by Reconciliation...Some Think It Is Accomplished by Medication... But for Most of Our World it Remains an Elusive State of Being... God Has Come, and He Has Provided a Lasting Peace for Us! Not Just a Fleeting Moment or an Elusive Dream... Romans 5:1 (NIV)“Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” God Loved Us So Much that He Sent His Son to Redeem Mankind and Restore Our Peace with Him.  Judges 6:23-24 (NIV)“But the Lord said to him, ‘Peace! Do not be afraid. You are not going to die.' So, Gideon built an altar to the Lord there and called it The Lord is Peace.” 2 Thessalonians 3:16 (NIV)“Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.”

“Jesus said, I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” -John 16:33   Welcome to The Adoption & Foster Care Journey—a podcast to encourage, educate and equip you as you care for children in crisis through adoption, foster care and kinship care.   On this episode, host Sandra Flach, continues her annual Advent series.

This Sunday, we continue our Advent series, and we're looking at the beautiful promise of peace. To do that, we'll travel back about 3,500 years to hear the prophet Isaiah's words: “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given…” (Isaiah 9:6–7). When Isaiah first spoke those words, peace was not the reality of his world. God's people were anxious and under threat. Yet Isaiah pointed to a future peace that would not come through armies or politics, but through a child, the One who would be called the Prince of Peace. As we open Luke chapter 2, we'll see that Jesus entered a world every bit as chaotic as our own. Rome ruled with power, fear was constant, and even the king sought to kill Jesus upon his birth. Yet into that darkness, God sent light. The angels' announcement, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom He is pleased,” reminds us that Jesus came not to end political wars, but to restore peace where it was most needed: between God and humanity. The peace of Christmas is not a sentimental wish; it's a spiritual reality that begins when we are reconciled to God through faith in Christ.

Welcome to the second week of our Advent Meditation Journey. In this sacred season of waiting, we turn our attention to peace—not just as a feeling, but as a way of being rooted in God's presence. This meditation invites you to pause, breathe deeply, and explore the longings that stir beneath the surface. However you are today—tense or calm, weary or expectant—you are welcome here. Let this be a moment to bring your whole self before God and receive the peace that passes understanding.

Because Jesus is our peace, we can be a people of peace.In the second week of Advent, we consider Micah 5:2-5, and how it encourages us in light of Christ, the prince of peace, to be a people of peace.

We reflect on the peace of God that arrives with the birth of Jesus. It is a supernatural peace that transcends above and sustains us through the woes of this world.
