Sermon
The Purpose of Christmas
By Tim Keller
Tim Keller | December 22, 1996
Of all the passages that are read at Christmas, Luke 2 is perhaps the most famous. And in this most famous passage, the most famous word is peace. What is Christmas all about? Peace on earth.
When Jesus Christ was born as a baby, he was born to bring this peace.
But what is this peace on earth? We’ll look at 1) what it is not, 2) what it is, and 3) how you receive it and live it out.
