Episode 210: Take Nothing But Peace
from Alix Pridgen
“Sometimes, peace isn’t a feeling — it’s a decision. It’s what we choose to hold onto when respect gives way to resentment, when the people we once stood beside become distant. Even if you can’t fix the world — you can still be faithful in it. And that may be the truest peace of all.”

What this episode covers
Take Nothing but Peace In a world full of tension and disagreement — from family tables to public debates — how do we follow Jesus' command to lead with peace? In this sermon on Luke 10:1–11, 16–20, Pastor Alix invites us to imagine peace not as passive avoidance or forced politeness, but as a deep strength rooted in God. Through stories of family conflict, playground diplomacy, and the long reconciliation between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, this message calls us to let go of control, resist the need to win, and embody the kind of peace that carries us even when others don’t receive it.
