“Don’t assume that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword” -Jesus. (Matthew 10:34)
Wait…what? I thought Jesus was the Prince of Peace, but these words of Jesus seem to say something totally different. What do we do with this?
In part 3 of our Christmas series, Prince of Peace, Pastor Steve unpacks this provocative teaching of Jesus from Matthew 10, helping us understand how the Gospel of Jesus impacted the world in which Jesus was living…and the world in which we live today.
If you are ready to dig into the tensions of the Gospel and the potential tensions in your own life, then listen to this message and be convicted and inspired to be a person of peace!
//The Gospel of Jesus results in reconciliation and should be reflected in the way that WE bring peace to this world. //
