With all the stresses and bad news of modern life, peace often seems elusive. But Jesus offers peace always.  Hear how, in this inspiring sermon by Pastor Steve Herder of Ascension Lutheran Church in Thousand Oaks, California. Pastor Steve refers to the experience of his friend, Kathryn Koob, who spent 444 days in captivity in Iran after the U.S. Embassy takeover there. He also reminds us of the many places in scripture where we can find God's promise of "Shalom," a peace that is deeper than simply peace.
