Saint Athanasius Lutheran Church

Today is not only the birth of Jesus, the birth of the Son of God in human flesh, the birth of our Saviour... it is all that, but more. Today, God is speaking to us by His Son. For here, in the manger, the Creator lies as a creature. And not just any creature, but one of us. And not just one of us, but a tiny, helpless, baby. No other god would do this. How greatly God doth love you! That word is being proclaimed loud and clear this day. The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.
