Christmas is a celebration that God is for us, near us, because God is one of us. God comes to us, in the vulnerability of child, to save us from our sins, and to rescue us from the evil forces that oppress us.
Christmas promises us that the despots of this age, political or spiritual, are living on borrowed time. The Christmas story is God's answer to all the evil, injustice, brutality, suffering and death that we see around us.
Christmas is the annual reminder that God's liberating love will always find us in the darkest corners of the world.
