Welcome to another enlightening episode of the NonsoforJesus podcast. Tonight, we dive deep into a subject that has plagued humanity for centuries: violence. As we gather under the serene Indiana night, we confront the harsh reality that violence has become the order of the day, a stark contrast to the peace God desires for us.

Join me as I explore the biblical perspective on violence, starting with a profound reading from Genesis 6:11-13. We revisit the story of Noah, where God’s disdain for violence led to the great flood, a powerful reminder of His desire for a peaceful world. We examine the roots of violence, drawing parallels between the ancient world and our modern society, where media influence and other factors perpetuate this destructive behavior.

Throughout this episode, we reflect on the teachings of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, and how His message can heal our hearts and our world. We discuss the controversial removal of the Bible from schools, pondering the impact of this decision on the rise of violence among young people. Through scriptural insights from Proverbs, 1 Corinthians, and Colossians, we emphasize the importance of embracing God’s word as a beacon of love, mercy, and kindness.

As we navigate these turbulent times, we offer a heartfelt prayer and invite listeners to welcome Jesus into their lives, allowing His peace to reign in their hearts. This episode is a call to action for individuals and nations to turn towards God, teaching His principles in schools and institutions to combat the growing tide of violence.

Tune in to be inspired and empowered to make a difference, one heart at a time. God bless you and stay blessed.
