Christmas Eve 2025 - God With Us

Christmas Eve 2025 - God With Us
Written By Kurt Willems
 

Description

On Christmas Eve, we reflect on one of the greatest mysteries of all: God becomes human. In Jesus, God chooses closeness over distance and steps into the ordinary, often messy realities of our world so we discover what it truly means to be human in a new way. The Christmas story shows that God does not remain distant or detached, but lives with us—right where life happens. And in that nearness, God changes us. God with us, in our mess, forms us to become more like Jesus.
