Key Theme:
While the world offers many peace solutions to the turmoil in our lives, the good news of peace through Jesus is the only one that lasts.
Key application:
Take time to evaluate and recognize areas of your life that you are getting “peace” from the world and consider how the peace of Jesus might be the solution you long for.
Key verse:
Romans 5:1 “Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Key Questions:
1. Consider and/or discuss things that are currently causing turmoil in your life, home, marriage, relationships, work, etc.?
2. In what ways do you seek to “get away”/ escape, alleviate, find rest from, or bring peace to those situations?
3. What promises of God, if they came to fullness and completion, would bring peace to your heart? (healing, judgment, provision, etc..)

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
