In this first part of our Advent Series: Unwrapping Christmas, we begin with the backdrop of John 1, the arrival of Jesus Christ, Emmanuel God with us.
The creator of all things and the light of life who brings light into the world came and dwelt among us.

In this message, our understanding of peace is widened. The Shalom Peace that Christ our Wonderful Counselor and Prince of Peace gives is not the absence of conflict, nor contingent on external factors, but an internal peace that surpasses understanding.

It is a peace that goes beyond the political and social expectations of any time, reaching into the hearts of those who believe in Jesus - offering a profound, lasting transformation.

It’s His power at work in us, which BIRTHS all things - he is the ‘creator’ of ‘lasting peace’.

In this message, be encouraged to live with anticipation on this profound peace. As believers, we continue to experience and testify to this transformative peace in our lives, which finds its source in the presence of the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ.

This first part of the journey from anticipation to the fulfillment of Israel's Messiah in the birth of Christ is a narrative that underscores the transformative power of Christ's peace, that even in the most challenging circumstances, the power of Christ's peace can bring about transformative change.
