Peace of God Bible (Review and Giveaway)

You were made for peace—and to be a peacemaker. The story of the Bible is the story of peace. Reading through it from cover to cover you see how ultimately we can have peace with God and with one another. The Peace of God Bible points us to the verses that show us how to do just that. How important is it to understand that peace isn’t simply a feeling of calm or ease? 

Maybe this is why some leave the faith, or struggle with their relationship with the Lord. 

When we are looking for a feeling because we once felt what we interpreted as the peace of God, undoubtedly we are going to want to find it again. The problem with that is, it is easy to turn to New Age methods labeled with a "Christian" sticker. Yet that is not true peace. Feeling centered, or in control of our life is not true peace. 

True peace is knowing and understanding that God through His Word, even if our emotions do not line up. 

  

The Peace of God Bible invites you to experience peace with God as you trace this  important theme throughout Scripture. Focus on it daily as you read 365 devotions and application notes. Here you will find the encouragement you need to live out of the wholeness you have in Christ—and be equipped to share that peace with others.

Wholehearted, biblical peace is a way of experiencing life as we were always meant to—in relationship with our Creator and with each other. We can recover a completeness that was once lost but is restored in the gospel. We can try through the world's methods; endless YouTube self-help videos, self-betterment retreats, and the like, but true peace comes with aligning with God's plans and purposes, regardless of how messy or complicated.
