Nevertheless: The Promise of Peace

Athens Church

Advent often feels like it begins in the dark. Circumstances crowd in, anxiety hums beneath the surface, and waiting feels like a spotlight on everything we cannot control. Yet into that very place, God speaks a single, hope-soaked word: nevertheless.

This message from Tyler Bushhorn traces the story from Isaiah’s promise to the shepherds’ hillside, where heaven breaks open and peace arrives not as a feeling, but as a baby. We explore why true peace can’t be manufactured, why our substitutes fall short, and how Christ meets restless people right where they are.

Whether you’re navigating a weary December or just craving a breath of stillness, this Advent reflection invites you to remember the God who keeps His promises and the peace that breaks in even when circumstances feel anything but peaceful.
