This week, we're continuing our four week Advent series leading into Christmas, named after what Gabriel says to Mary when Jesus' birth is announced. Today we consider the word Peace and how God is working to bring our lives and this world into Shalom - wholeness or completeness. As we pay special attention to John the Baptist preparing the way, we talk about what exactly is being prepared in us so peace can fill our lives. Passages from Isaiah 40, Psalm 85, Mark 1, and 2 Peter 3. -- Jonathan Stein - December 6, 2020
