Series: Christmas Unwrapped

We find hopeful resilience in Jesus’ “epiphnaies” (his first appearing at Christmas and his future appearing when he returns to earth), because they offer us with a story to guide us, and a promise to strengthen us.

As we continue in this Advent season, we are reminded that the coming or appearing of God-in-flesh in Jesus is a grace-shaped mission.

We certainly can’t save ourselves by the worst things we do. We can’t even save ourselves by the best things we do.

In this message, we see how God’s “epiphany” (appearance) in Christ involves a timely rescue, and we consider what that means, who it’s for, and how to pray in light of it.
