  • Summary

  • What if the Author of the story could step into the story? What if the Author of the story did exactly that?

    That’s the astonishing claim that Christians make: That the living God showed up in the flesh, becoming one of us. That the Creator of time stepped into history and was born in an impoverished village in the backwaters of the Roman Empire. That God did all this, in the person of Jesus. For our rescue and healing. A promise fulfilled. A grace realized.

    Listen to this week's sermon, focusing on Isaiah 40:1-5.

    “The incarnation is a kind of vast joke whereby the Creator of the ends of the earth comes among us in diapers… Until we too have taken the idea of the God-man seriously enough to be scandalized by it, we have not taken it as seriously as it demands to be taken.”

    — Frederick Buechner, Faces of Jesus
