Incarnation (189)
  1. Buried deep in our human psyche, there seems to be more than a need—almost a necessity—to celebrate the arrival of a new year. It’s like an unspoken, unlegislated cultural demand, as instinctual as moving to music or smiling at a newborn. Why? What deep human need is at work here?
  2. Love turns out to be not simply a thing or action, but a characteristic of God himself.
  3. The shepherds are the most unlikely people to play the role the angels cast them in.
  4. What is Christmas all about? It's inconceivable, but nevertheless about Christ being conceived. The word of God was promised, and that promise was Jesus.
  5. The Advents of Christ (past, present, and future) elicit faith in the word of Christ, confirmed by his presence.
  6. Christmas conversations with Kelsi Klembara, Daniel Emery Price, Scott Keith and Blake Flattley.
  7. Moses was sent to keep the house in order, but this Child is sent to bring the house home, and you are part of that house, the household of God.
  8. Your Christian faith is a bloody faith, and that ought not make you fearful or scared or embarrassed.
  9. When Jesus assumes the body prepared for Him to do God’s will, the end of an old era has arrived, and with it, the beginning of a new.
  10. He also took our own history and suffered all the agony and pain of our own lives.
  11. Big or small, potential or certain, the despair we may grapple with during this time of year tends to find its end in the fact that things are not as they should be.
