This morning our junior high students had a unique church experience. We met in a coffee shop (Bullseye Coffee ), as there was not room in our facility for the morning. We had to get creative for the third week in a row, due to weather. (God is in control, we are not.)
We ended the Advent season by considering The Incarnation of the Son God — the Word dwelt among us (John 1:1-18). Briefly seeking to establish the infinite worth and amazing creativity of Jesus as the One true Creator, I pointed the students to some images from outer space (see here ).
The Word — the One who displays God to us and is God’s final and loudest word to His people — created all of that. In an instant.
But He didn’t leave His creation alone afterward. In the fullness of time God entered His world, motivated by love.
Truly, this One is the Creator God worth worshiping.
