(Advent Series: Part 3 of 5) A guided time with God through prayer and reflection on Scripture. In this episode, put yourself into the shoes of those who lived in Bethlehem.

Spend some time with the God who brings us true peace, the peace we all need. To learn more about Spiritual Growth, visit saddleback.com/grow .
