The Bible says that Christ is “the Word become flesh.” What does that mean? It is in fact an extraordinary message, and one that can transform our lives.

If you have to climb the mountain of God, can you make it to the top? The good news is that God has moved the other way – God has come to us! We can experience God’s presence and grace in Christ, who is God with us.

Does the world seem out of control, so often in the hands of corrupt, evil, or incapable leaders? The gospel brings a message of great hope and assurance – that beyond outward appearances there is One on the throne whose power is infinite, whose will for us is good, and whose victory is assured.

As we approach Thanksgiving, do we have real reason for thanks, or more reason to grumble? The Scriptures give us a whole new perspective.

God is both beyond this world and within it. We can encounter God’s saving power within the ordinary elements of our lives.
