As Black Friday approaches...

Soon the Christmas shopping season will kick off in earnest, although we all know the pre-season started before Halloween even arrived. There will be a large number of voices telling us that we can improve the economy by shopping, that giving after all is what the season is about, and since you are working so hard in giving to others, why not give a little to yourself.

At the heart of it all however, is that God the Son, did not stoop to come, become flesh, die and rise so that we might prop up an ailing economy. The Incarnation is about God's giving to humanity a new kind of life... one certainly rooted in giving, but SELF giving.

The following video, found on YouTube, makes the point more powerfully than I can...



Peace.

Apologies...

Sorry for not posting sermons recently... the online host I use to store my files is currently going through some changes, and not allowing new files to be uploaded. As soon as I can upload the new files, I will put them up.

I will continue to post however.

Peace,
Pr. Brian
