The Logos Became Flesh
Enjoy this message from Pastor Tyler Schoenberger called "The Logos Became Flesh" on Sunday,
November 23, 2025 at Reach Church in Bear, Delaware!
The opening of John's Gospel presents one of the most revolutionary concepts in human history: the Logos, which Greek philosophers understood as the cosmic principle behind universal order and harmony, is actually a person - Jesus Christ. This wasn't merely a philosophical concept but the living God who created all things and serves as the source of life and light for humanity.Despite being the author of all harmony, Jesus faces rejection in multiple forms - through misunderstanding, active resistance, exploitation of His name, and refusal to receive His truth. This rejection explains much of the discord and restlessness we experience in our world, as we drift away from the very source of order and peace.
The most profound truth of Christmas lies in the Incarnation - God becoming fully human while remaining fully God. Jesus didn't maintain a safe distance from human suffering but identified completely with our brokenness, living among us like Father Damien among the lepers. He experienced the gritty reality of human existence, getting sweaty, dirty, and bloody while touching the untouchable and dining with outcasts. Through His sacrifice, Jesus silences every condemning voice with the message that we are worth everything to Him, offering grace as the only cure for human brokenness and the path to true alignment with God's design for our lives.
