Derek Turner - Advent - Peace

River Church Charlotte Podcast

When one kingdom invades another the result is violence, pain, and death. Eventually, there comes a pseudo calm that is labeled as peace and lasts only as long as the dominant force can control things. But this is never true peace because Peace is a person and His name is Jesus. Advent is the story of a Kingdom invasion. The irony of Advent is that it came through the man of Peace who taught us how to be human and then turned himself over to violence, pain, and ultimately death. His resurrection secured peace on earth by first depositing Peace in us.
