Comfort Zone

Contributed by Timothy Spivey on Dec 24, 2004

This sermon talks about the incarnation of Christ and it as God’s move of intimacy toward the world.

Before it was Eliot’s, that way of looking at the birth of Jesus into human form was captured by John: John 1:1-4, 14, 16-18: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word ...read more
