from Stephen Nichols Dec 07, 2018 Category: Articles
One of the most remarkable stories of Christmas comes from one of the darkest moments of modern history. World War I ravaged a continent, leaving destruction and debris in its wake. The human cost, well in the millions, staggers us. But from the midst of this dark conflict comes the story of the Christmas Truce of 1914. The Western Front, only a few months into the war, was a deplorable scene of devastation. Perhaps as if to give the combatants one day to breathe again, a truce was called from Christmas Eve through Christmas Day.

from Christina Fox Dec 05, 2018 Category: Articles
Many of us are familiar with Martin Luther’s hymn, A Mighty Fortress is our God. Based on Psalm 46, this hymn is often considered the battle hymn of the Reformation. At a time when Protestants were sent into exile for their beliefs, this hymn reminded them of God’s sovereignty over evil.

By using the term incomprehensible, they are not referring to something we are unable to comprehend or know at all. Theologically speaking, to say God is incomprehensible is not to say that God is utterly unknowable. It is to say that none of us can comprehend God exhaustively.
