Faithful Writers

Christmas doesn’t ask us to admire a baby. It asks us to reckon with a Savior. The names given to Jesus don’t exist to decorate the season—they confront us with who actually showed up.

The Christmas story wasn’t meant to be a forensic report. Donkey or no donkey, star or no star, Matthew and Luke tell a theological truth: God has stepped into human history, drawing near in ordinary, chaotic, yet extraordinary grace.
