Sermon Title: Adam: The Beloved – Part 1

This week we continue our Advent Series which focuses on incarnation (en-flesh-ment, embodiment, God putting on skin, God becoming flesh).

This week and next week we are using Henri Nouwen’s book Adam: The Beloved as our jumping off point. It is a short but amazing book about a young man who could not speak, had epilepsy, and due to some unfortunate events lost his ability to do almost everything for himself. Henri Nowen was a scholar and writer, a priest and university professor who found himself helping Adam for a season of his life. Their experience together speaks to our understanding of God with us and God in us. Incarnation.

Scripture: Philippians 2:1-8
