What really are the implications of God With Us, Immanuel, the God who has come to be with his creation? What is the Incarnation and does it actually have any impact on me, my life, how I live, and what I hope for? In short, the incarnation is the supreme mystery of the faith for those who follow Jesus. Be encouraged by this brief excursus on the theme of Advent and Christmas - Christ has come!

Our familiarity and obsession with the secular season of Christmas leaves many with an anemic understanding of how to remember the birth of Christ, or what it is we're remembering. The idea that Advent is about candles, love, joy, hope and peace can actually be a distraction and a discouragement. There is so much more going on, and we invite you to explore that with us over the next 4 weeks as we press in on the arrival of God in a human body. Pass it on if it encourages you!
