Living Under the Influence | Part 7 | Peace

In part seven of Living Under the Influence, Pastor Brian exposes the flaw in culture’s equation for peace—which tries to subtract problems—and reveals that true biblical peace (eirēnē / shalom) is found in the restoring presence of Jesus. Rather than waiting for chaos to clear, we experience God’s supernatural tranquility when we keep our minds steadfastly connected to the Prince of Peace in the very middle of our circumstances.

Key Verse

You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.

Isaiah 26:3 (NIV)
