What does a kingdom of peace look like?
Early Christians were getting hung up on things like food and traditions. Paul wrote to remind them of what God really wanted for his people: goodness, peace, and joy.
At the end of C. S. Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, the four children have grown into wise, caring rulers of a wonderful world named Narnia, ruling from the capital city Cair Paraval. It’s like a tiny glimpse into what a kingdom at peace looks like—a place where good people rule from joyful hearts.
God’s Kingdom has come and is coming. The children got to experience a peek of the good land Narnia. We get peeks at God’s Kingdom, a life of goodness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. I’ll take even those small views of it.
Act
Read or watch C. S. Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, paying close attention to the ending.
Pray
God, your Kingdom is going to be better than any imagined one. Help me to start living like it’s arriving soon!

About this Plan
Whether it’s social media, the news, or our own households, it’s like no one wants to live in peace. Getting their own words heard—often forcibly—seems to be more important today than just about anything else. It’s exhausting, all this posturing and shouting. What if we start creating spaces of peace? Think what might happen if all these little pockets of peace started popping up all over our communities.
