Peace On Earth Starts With You & Me
Peace at Christmastime? Every year I struggle with the ironic phrase. The phrase “peace on Earth, good will to men” up to now stuck in my craw a tad. Why? It sounds so “pie in the sky.” This year I realized a Bible verse in Luke and a misconception stemming from show biz are to blame. A tweaked, parphrased recitation we hear in “A Charlie Brown Christmas” differs greatly from the verse found in Luke 2:14.
