Having an Awe-Ful Christmas

The Christmas mystery is identified here as "Christ in you, the hope of glory," offering an internal source of life that transcends external circumstances. Glory is defined as the distilled essence of life, which was concentrated in the person of Jesus and made available to all who invite Him into their hearts. Dr. Passavant concludes that true life is found not in fame or power, but in the humility of a heart that acknowledges God is real and present.
