Tim Keller | December 16, 2012
The world is a dark place. We don’t look at it directly all the time. But then we have a terrible tragedy and right away we say, “We have to do something.”
Christmas is about God’s plan to do something—to deal with evil and suffering and death and to deal with it for good. Christmas is about dealing with the darkness.
In Luke 2, we’re going to learn about 1) the fact of Christmas and 2) the pattern of Christmas. When we look at both, I think we’ll have a better idea about what God’s plan is to deal with the darkness.
This Month's Featured Book
The meaning of Christmas can often be hidden, covered by the decorations, gift exchanges and seasonal parties that happen at this time every year. In this book, Tim Keller examines the hard edges of the biblical story of Christ’s birth and what it means for us today.
