What is the real Christmas spirit—and why does so much of the world miss it?

In this powerful Christmas message, Pastor John Hagee explains why peace is not found in shopping, sentiment, or tradition—but only through a surrendered life to Jesus Christ. Drawing from Luke chapter 2, he reveals the biblical truth behind the angel’s declaration: “Peace on earth, goodwill toward men.” This is not a promise of universal peace, but a divine invitation to those who submit to the Prince of Peace.

You’ll discover why Christmas without Christ leaves hearts empty, why true peace is impossible without God’s approval, and why obedience—not emotion—is the defining mark of the Christmas spirit. From the manger to Calvary, this message calls believers and seekers alike to absolute surrender and lasting hope in a world filled with turmoil.

???? If you’re searching for peace, joy, and purpose that lasts beyond the holidays, this message is for you.
