“How Jesus Brings Peace to Our Chaos: An Advent Conversation” With Wendy Blight, Ellen Adkins, and Kaley Olson
When life feels unsettled, peace can feel impossible to find. In this Advent episode, Ellen Adkins joins Kaley Olson and Wendy Blight to unpack the deeper meaning of “shalom” — not just the absence of conflict but the presence of wholeness. Together, they trace the story of peace from the garden of Genesis to the birth of Jesus, revealing why Christ alone brings calm to the chaos within us and around us.
A hope-filled conversation for anyone longing for a steady, soul-deep peace this Christmas.
You’ll learn:
The deeper meaning of “shalom” and why biblical peace offers wholeness, not just relief.
How Jesus’ birth fulfills God’s long-awaited promise to push back the chaos of sin.
Why our instinct to control often amplifies inner turmoil — and the freeing alternative Scripture gives us.
How to identify places of unrest in your life and step into them with Christ-shaped peace.
The powerful hope of a future where God fully silences chaos and makes all things whole again.
