In this first episode of our December Christmas series on peace, Paul and Rebecca Turner open the season by tackling one of the most common misunderstandings of the Christmas story. Many people assume the angels proclaimed “peace on earth,” promising a world without conflict or struggle. But Scripture actually says something far more profound: “on earth peace.”

In this conversation, Paul and Rebecca unpack the true meaning of the angels’ announcement in Luke 2:14, exploring why it could not have meant global political peace or a trouble-free world—and they offer more than a dozen biblical, theological, and practical reasons explaining why. Instead of a promise to remove conflict, the angels declared the arrival of the One who brings peace with God, peace within, and peace that sustains us even in chaos.

As we begin this month-long journey toward Christmas, join us in rediscovering the deeper, sturdier peace Christ brought into a broken world—peace available not because the world is calm, but because Christ has come.

In this Thanksgiving episode of The All Consuming Grace Podcast, Paul and Rebecca Turner explore a question that stops us in our tracks: “What if you lost everything?” Drawing from the raw honesty of Job’s suffering and the Apostle Paul’s journey from endurance to embracing hardship, they unpack how believers can remain thankful—even when life feels shattered.

With heartfelt storytelling and biblical insight, this episode dives into:

• How to cultivate gratitude in seasons of loss, suffering, and uncertainty

• Why Job’s response to unimaginable pain still speaks hope today

• How the Apostle Paul learned to not just survive trials, but to see God’s strength in them

• What it means to give thanks for God’s unspeakable gift when everything else seems to slip away

If you're searching for encouragement, wrestling with grief, or simply wanting to enter Thanksgiving with a deeper, richer perspective, this episode will uplift your heart and anchor your soul.

Tune in for a conversation filled with faith, resilience, thankfulness, and the hope found in Christ alone.

In this episode of The All Consuming Grace Podcast, Paul and Rebecca Turner talk about something every family faces — moments when hope seems to run out. From kids to parents, we all have times when life feels too heavy. Looking at Elijah’s story in 1 Kings 19, we see a man who felt completely alone and ready to give up. But God met Elijah with gentle grace, gave him rest, renewed his purpose, and reminded him that he wasn’t alone after all.
Join Paul and Rebecca as they share how we, too, can find God’s quiet voice of hope in our hardest days — and how families can walk through those moments together.
