This Christmas Sunday Message was delivered in two parts. The first part considers the reality that the angelic messengers who announced the birth of Jesus were surrounded by the glory of the Lord. This means the message is very significant. The significance of the message is the focus of the second part which looks at John 1:14 and the miracle of the manger.

Despite being the Mother of Jesus we get the feeling that Mary was quite an ordinary person. Yet, when the angel appeared to her, she has an extraordinary response of faith. Our call is to know that Jesus brings ordinary people into His family.
