“Comfort, O comfort my people, says your God.”
(Isaiah 40:1)

What is Christmas magic?

A sermon on Isaiah 40, offered on December 18, 2016 at Landrum Presbyterian Church.

From the sermon:

“How can we believe

in a Prince of Peace

when bombs fall ceaselessly,

and rulers manipulate & distort with impunity,

and commentators obfuscate & yell for vast profit,

and the violent bear away all we hold dear,

and the Big Lie reigns supreme?

“What is Christmas magic?

We are.

We are.

For one another,

as God has come

to be for us–

no less

and far more

than even we who believe

may know.”

Merry Christmas to all–
