They offer their solution to \u201cFinding Peace\u201d.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>If you have enough money, lose enough weight, buy the right car, have the right clothes, wear the right make-up, live in the right location, work for the right company, take the right vacation, fly the right airline, use the right insurance company, read the right books, go to the right school, hire the right doctor, use the right financial advisor, do the right meditation, take the right medicine, do the right level of exercise, etc\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..

Do they ever present a story that gives you peace?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>They promote worry, fear, anger, confusion, division, and give little in the way of \u201cPeace of Mind\u201d.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>And yet, we turn it on or read it every day.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>At the same time, we neglect the Word of God, which brings peace of mind, thankfulness, and hope. This world will offer a peace that will never satisfy and will leave us defeated.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>You don\u2019t have to listen to very many people to discern the level of peace in their lives.
