Peace

What is true peace in our lives?


In this collection, twenty-one Christian authors explore the many faces of peace through stories, poems, and reflections. Is peace the absence of conflict—or the calm presence of Christ amid it?


Meet a variety of characters who encounter peace in surprising ways: a detective grappling with grief, an unlikely pair of spies encountering betrayal, a fearful wife dreading Colombian violence, a young lady searching for both a job and her life purpose amid a wrong turn, a sibling duo caught in a treacherous river, an uncle recounting a holy experience in the midst of war, and a Christmas-avoiding veteran caught in the most unlikely place on Christmas Eve. Can peace dwell in loss? In waiting? In loneliness? In a wedding where something new goes wrong every few minutes? What might a singing phoebe, an eager author, or third-place pie teach us about the Prince of Peace?


Above all, this anthology points to the true and lasting source of peace—the One who stills every storm and whispers, “My peace I give to you.” Step into these pages and rediscover the serenity, surrender, and steadfast love that only Jesus can bring.
