Is it possible to find the holy in the middle of the holiday rush? In the days following Christmas, it is common to feel a sense of "letdown" after the gifts are unwrapped and the guests have gone home. In this sermon, we explore the Prologue of John (John 1:1–18) to discover how the Logos—the Word—bridges the gap between the divine and the daily grind.
Join us as we move from the manger to the theology of the Incarnation, learning how to stop criticizing the secular "Christmas crazy" and start a "treasure hunt" for God’s grace in unexpected places.
In this Sermon Frank Leong covers:
The Theology of Waiting: How Advent prepares us to ponder the mysteries of God, just as Mary did.
The Meaning of Logos: Understanding how the Apostle John used a Greek philosophical concept to reveal Jesus to a Gentile world.
The "Secular" Christmas: Why we should stop judging the commercialism of the season and start looking for the "Invisible becoming Visible" in acts of love and generosity.
A Miracle of Reconciliation: A powerful personal testimony by Frank Leong of how God orchestrated a family reunion, bridging a years-long gap between estranged relatives in the midst of illness.
Scripture: John 1:1–18
