Scripture

John 1:1–14

About this sermon

"The gift everyone should take" - At Christmas we celebrate the arrival of a baby in a manger—but John’s Gospel tells us something far more surprising. This baby is the one who made the world, yet when he came into it, the world did not recognise him. Why was God so easily overlooked? And why did he come at all? This talk explores the wonder and shock of Christmas: the Creator stepping into his creation, being rejected by it, and yet offering forgiveness, restoration, and adoption into God’s family. In a broken and weary world, Christmas isn’t about trying harder or being good enough—it’s about receiving an extraordinary gift: becoming children of God. Speaker: Paul Williams Bible passage: John 1:1-14 Date: 21 Dec 2025 View more details or download audio at https://www.st-helens.org.uk/resources/talk/59251/
