Advent 4 - Prince of Peace – Simon Elliott

In a world marked by political turmoil, injustice, and the misuse of power, Isaiah’s prophecy points us to a very different kind of King: the Prince of Peace. This message explores the rich biblical meaning of shalom — not just the absence of conflict, but wholeness, justice, healing, and restored relationship. Tracing Isaiah’s words through history and into the life of Jesus, we discover that true peace does not come through control or force, but through surrender, service, and the transforming rule of Christ. As we celebrate Christmas, this message challenges us to consider who we are following — and invites us to receive the peace of Jesus personally and to become peacemakers in our world.
