Christmas Eve Service

December 24, 2015 | David Speakman

Scripture: John 1:14

Irenaeus on the Incarnation: “In His immeasurable love, He became what we are in order to make us what He is.”
(Against the Heresies, V, Preface)

In other words, embrace the madness of the season. Bellow out the off-key carols. Smile at the silly reindeer. Empty your pockets into the Salvation Army kettles as the Santa’s ring their bells. Slip on icy walks with your arms full of presents. Load the tree with lights. Pray not in despair or supplication but in wild thankfulness. Rejoice and be merry, set sorrow aside: / Christ Jesus our Savior was born on this tide.  —Joseph Bottum

That is my prayer for you this Christmas — that you would experience the fullness of Christ; that you would know in your heart the outpouring of grace upon grace; that the glory of the only Son from the Father would shine into your heart to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ; that you would be amazed that Christ can be so real to you. —John Piper
