Merry Christmas from our family to you and yours!  In so many of our celebrations of Christmas, we can sometimes miss or forget that the incarnation was an expression of God on a global mission (Jn 3:16). Christ came as part of God’s plan to reconcile the world to Him and in fulfillment of God’s promises. Christmas is about God keeping His promises and working for reconciliation out of love, humility, mercy, and righteousness! 

          One of our faculty and doctoral students just published an article entitled “Immanuel in Asia” through our Center for Theological Inquiry in Asia. For a global reflection on the incarnation, you can check it out here.

          We are so thankful that God made the first move to reconcile lost people and a lost world. And it is such a privilege to participate in that same mission every day. We’re so thankful for each one of you who helps us bring God’s message of reconciliation to the nations through our ministry and your own lives and ministries. God has been at work for redemption and restoration for a long time and He is faithful!  

                                        Merry Christmas!
