Dear friends in Christ,
After months of commercial cacophony about Christmas shopping, the day is finally here. The dawn is like any other day—except for the excitement of little ones early in the morning, if you have kids in your home. Maybe you want to church last night—or maybe you’ll go today.
The feast we celebrate is singular, but this day itself is like every other. And in that juxtaposition is the meaning of Christmas itself.
Born life every other baby in humble circumstances, the Word was made flesh. No longer distant or remote, our Father sent his only Son to live with us. God-among-us.
And that is the Good News of this day. We are never alone, never far from God. Our God loves us more than we can imagine, and he will never abandon us. Jesus Christ knows our sorrows and our joys, and he brings us redemption and healing.
Take a quiet moment and give thanks for God’s love. Happy Christmas to you and all whom you love.
Yours faithfully,
Scott Gunn
Executive Director
