The Missing Peace

If Christmas brings “peace on earth,” why are our lives and world so full of difficulty?

“Peace on earth” is a crucial part of the Christmas message and a reality we’d all love to experience. But when we look around or listen to the news, it seems like an empty promise. Our world is not at peace, and often our lives and relationships are not peaceful either.

In this short, warm, and down-to-earth book, author and evangelist Sam Chan considers the question of peace. Through relatable storytelling and engaging insights into the Christian faith and Christmas story, Chan shows us how peace is possible despite the harsh realities of life in this world.

The Missing Peace is meant to be shared. Give copies away at Christmas services, church events, or to family and friends who aren’t following Jesus. Christians will also enjoy this simple reminder that Jesus brings the peace we’re all looking for.
