The honesty of advent invites us deeper into the human story of Christ. We shared these words as part of our Honest Advent weekly worship gatherings in December 2022.

God Meets Us In The Vulnerable Christ

God the Creator becomes creature.

God, the breath of every living thing, becomes embryo.

God, whose hand scoops out oceans, floats in a fetal sac.

God, whose voice splits cedar trees, cries for mother’s milk.

God, who crushes king’s armies, can’t walk.

God, who feeds all living things, is hungry.

God, who is sovereign, cannot defend himself.

God, full of glory, poops and pukes.

-Dan Boone
