As Christmas approaches, people around the world long for peace—peace in the world, peace in families, peace within their own hearts. In this Christmas Eve episode of Faith Talks, Sarah and Mike reflect on a moving message by Pastor Kyewoon Choi that challenges where we look for peace and invites us to discover where it truly begins.
Drawing from Luke 13 and the teachings of Jesus, this episode explores the surprising connection between repentance and peace, reminding us that lasting peace does not start with governments, treaties, or systems, but with peace with God. The conversation also highlights the historic Christmas Truce of 1914 as a glimpse of what happens when the name of Christ—the Prince of Peace—interrupts human conflict.
Listeners are invited to pause, look within, and bring their burdens to Christ, who offers a peace the world cannot give or take away.
