A Season of Love
Christmas is most of all a season of love, a celebration of the love of Christ shown by His choosing to come to earth, choosing to humble Himself and take on human flesh. But as wonderful as the manger is, it is only a small piece of the grand display of the love of God for us.

The Fullness of Christ
Christmas is a celebration of Christ’s gift to us. But that gift goes far beyond salvation from the penalty of our sins.
The Word Made Flesh
