John surveys the Christmas story in Matthew and Luke, looks at why they are so different, and explores the use of Isaiah 7 - “God with us” by Matthew– what did it mean and what does it mean for us.This week our theme is love. During this week I invite you to take time at the end of each day to give thanks for ways God with us has both brought love into your day; and through you brought love into the lives of others. I also invite you to reflect on what has led you away from love.
