O Holy Night | Matt Darvas

In this deeply reflective message, Matt Darvas invites us to wrestle honestly with the tension between the peace promised at Christmas and the pain we see in the world around us. Set against the realities of global conflict, personal loss, and the recent Bondi tragedy, Matt explores what it means to hope for peace when life feels anything but peaceful.

Through Scripture, personal family history, and thoughtful reflection, he reminds us that Jesus did not enter a calm and orderly world. He entered a broken one. This is not a message that avoids hard questions. Instead, it gently guides listeners toward a deeper, truer peace that does not deny suffering but meets it with love, justice, and grace.

The message also features Ps Stu Brown singing O Holy Night, allowing space to pause, reflect, and let the words of this timeless carol speak to weary hearts.

If you are feeling overwhelmed by the state of the world or carrying quiet pain of your own, this episode offers space to breathe, reflect, and rediscover the peace that Jesus gives, not as the world gives, but as only He can.
