Title:

Description:

Sermon start time: 22:25. Sermon end time: 44:13.
In this sermon, the preacher reminds his audience that Jesus’ nativity is the sign God gives to the world of its liberation. Sharing the gospel is to tell the hurting world of God’s subversive act: the Savior was born through a virgin in a humble manger. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
Key quotation: “God dispatches his messengers to tell us that God intends to disrupt the world through a baby, to have his way with our hurting hearts.”
