Advent E2 — In the second week of Advent, we’re reflecting on peace. The word most often translated as “peace” in the Hebrew Bible is shalom, but its meaning goes far beyond the absence of conflict. Shalom is about wholeness, completeness, and everything being as it should be. It describes uncut stones at an altar, honest weights in the marketplace, integrity of the heart, flourishing relationships, and life lived in harmony with God’s purposes. In this episode, Jon and Tim trace the deep biblical meaning of peace and show how Advent points to the arrival of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, who reconciles divided people and makes them one.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter notes including summaries, referenced Scriptures, biblical words, and reflection questions, <a href="https://bible.to/podcast-peace">check out the full show notes for this episode</a>.CHAPTERS<ol><li>Shalom in Stones, Weights, and Hearts—and Also Fulfillment (00:00–15:15)</li><li>Shalom as Well-Being and the Prince of Shalom  (15:15–29:21)</li><li>Jesus, Our Peace (29:21–35:38)</li><li>Reflections on Peace With Allison (35:38-39:42)</li></ol>OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPT<a href="https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/tbp-web/media/Advent%20E2%20Final%20Transcript.pdf">View this episode’s official transcript.</a>REFERENCED RESOURCES<ul><li><a href="https://bibleproject.com/videos/shalom-peace/">Shalom / Peace</a>: Though not referenced directly in the episode, this 2017 video explores the same biblical word, shalom.</li><li>Check out Tim’s extensive collection of recommended books <a href="https://www.librarycat.org/lib/BibleProject">here.</a></li></ul>SHOW MUSIC<ul><li>“Silver N Gold” by  Lofi Sunday & Yoni Charis</li><li>“Snow Fall” by Lofi Sunday & TBabz </li><li>“Snowflakes” by Aves</li><li>BibleProject theme song by TENTS </li></ul>SHOW CREDITSProduction of today’s episode is by Lindsey Ponder, producer, and Cooper Peltz, managing producer.
