The God Baby Jesus Gave Us and Gives Us

"The God Baby Jesus Gave Us and Gives Us"

Sermon by The Rev. Ed Bacon

Dec. 24, 2025


This sermon reflects on how certain moments quietly change us, marking a clear before and after in our lives. Drawing from stories of trauma, tenderness, and hope, it points to a God who heals not through judgment but through deep compassion and cherished belonging. Christmas, then, is not just about a baby in a manger, but about a God who reaches toward us, sees us fully, and invites us to live into the truth of who we are. In that love, we are called to become places of healing for others too.
