Church Seasons (1081)
  1. Love turns out to be not simply a thing or action, but a characteristic of God himself.
  2. The shepherds are the most unlikely people to play the role the angels cast them in.
  3. A madman king. State-decreed infanticide. A fleeing holy family. What does all this have to do with Christmas? And how did a day of horror also become a day of hope? Today, December 28, the church remembers The Holy Innocents.
  4. Dr. Paulson has one more Christmas story from Luther to share.
  5. As Christians, we rest in the finished work of Christ on the cross, and we yearn for our neighbor to be reconciled to God, to know the peace that we are resting in.
  6. The episode of the boy Jesus in the Temple raises questions. It raised questions for Mary (and Joseph) and it raises questions for us.
  7. Solomon uses his new gift of wisdom immediately, but as he grows older he appears to use this gift less and less!
  8. As we continue to celebrate the mystery of the incarnation, this is a perfect moment to meditate on how the work of God “in Christ" unfolds in every moment of the life of Jesus of Nazareth.
  9. God’s candle is not so easily extinguished. His promise is not some vague light at the end of the tunnel that we may or may not reach. In fact, God’s light has a name: Jesus Christ.
  10. What we are asked to believe as we ponder the birth of this child is that in his coming, a new creation has dawned.
  11. The best we would have to look forward to, without Jesus, is a society dedicated to addressing problems and working through them.
  12. 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.
