Worship Info for December 21, 2025 Text: Isaiah 9:1-7 Title: Prince of Peace The sermon centers on Jesus as the Prince of Peace, drawing from Isaiah 9:6–7 to reveal that His name embodies a divine, eternal peace—shalom—far exceeding mere absence of conflict and instead signifying wholeness, cosmic integration, and reconciliation with God. It emphasizes that this peace is not achieved through human effort, self-improvement, or societal reform, but is a gift received through surrender to Christ, who alone fulfills the longing for spiritual wholeness that manifests in addiction, anxiety, and relational brokenness. The sermon traces Christ's ministry, death, and resurrection as the ultimate act of establishing peace by overcoming darkness, reconciling all things to God, and inaugurating a kingdom ruled by justice and righteousness. It calls believers to live out this peace through humility, surrender, and gospel-centered relationships, transforming personal, familial, and communal life, and urges the church to become a living embodiment of shalom by extending grace, forgiveness, and love in a broken world.
