About this listen
In this message from the Presence-Centered Christmas series, Justin Harrell unpacks the powerful truth of John 1:14—that God did not remain distant, but came near in the person of Jesus. From Genesis to the manger, Scripture reveals God’s heart to dwell among His people, ultimately fulfilled in Christ, Emmanuel, “God with us.”
This sermon explores the marks of a Christ-centered Christmas: worship and awe, hope that overcomes darkness, Spirit-filled joy, trust in God’s perfect timing, true peace, humility, and the call to reconciliation. We’re reminded that Christmas is not about pressure or performance, but about presence—God with us and God transforming us.
Finally, this message connects the manger to the cross, revealing Christmas as an Easter story in seed form. Jesus came not only to be born, but to die, rise again, and bring us into new life. A timely invitation to examine our hearts, embrace God’s nearness, and celebrate the Savior who dwelt among us.
