Merry Christmas ‘07!

Merry Christmas to all. I am continually challenged to consider the great humility and love our great God and Creator revealed to us in sending Himself, His Son, to be born a baby, live a sinless life, give Himself as a sacrifice for our sins, and rise again to declare His victory. One cannot possibly go overboard in considering the worth of Jesus!

In considering Jesus’ Incarnation (God became flesh) and Advent (His first coming) I’ll point you to read and meditate on four short reflections from the staff of Desiring God.

Four parts on the Incarnation:

  1. Advent and the Incarnation
  2. Jesus Is Fully Human
  3. What Is the Hypostatic Union?
  4. The Virgin Birth

  • What is deTheos?

    The two Greek words de ("but") and Theos ("God") are the first two words of Ephesians 2:4: "But God, who is rich in mercy..." Because of God's great love and grace extending to us in Jesus Christ, we are forgiven, redeemed and able to know, love + enjoy God more fully, ever-increasing and forever.
    This site contains the thoughts and conclusions and journeys of the Patterson family -- Jeff, Kari and Dutch -- who have experienced the front-end of God's amazing grace, and continue to delight in His unfailing love.
    Read more about us, and what we hold most precious.
