 Opening Scripture - Luke 2:14

“Glory to God in the highest heaven,
    and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

Defining Statement: Peace that transcends understanding is Christ’s gift to us. Receive His gift of peace this Christmas season!

“For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness from then on and forevermore.  The zeal of the LORD of hosts will accomplish this.” Isaiah 9:6-7 (NASB)
