The sermon for this year's Christmas Candlelight Service asks the question, "Can the love of God be seen in the birth of Jesus alone, without thinking ahead to Jesus's adult life?" As Rev Derwyn walks us through an approach to this thought, you might also want to spend some time thinking about John 1:1-14 the way he describes it, substituting "the Christ" for "the Word."
NOTE: due to a technical glitch, the audio for the readings is not as clear as it should have been. Sorry about that!
