Sermon
The Purpose of Christmas
By Tim Keller
Tim Keller | May 23, 1993
What does it mean for Jesus to be the alpha and the omega? When we see him as “alpha,” we see him as God. We understand who we are in the light of knowing that we are beings created by and for God. When we see him as “omega,” we cease to use Jesus as a means to a greater end. Instead,Jesus himself becomes our greatest end.

In The Prodigal God, Tim Keller examines the way Jesus presents the parable to speak both to those who run from God and to those who try to earn his love by being good. It reveals the heart of the gospel—a message of hope for both the rebellious younger brother and the judgmental older brother, and an invitation for all to experience God’s grace.
