Have you ever wondered just how much God loves you? In this moving video sermon, Pastor Gerald helps us truly understand the depths of God's profound love by pointing to Jesus's birth as the greatest example of how God shows His love for us. He starts by sharing an emotional story of a little girl named Helen who gave up her chance to pet cute animals because she had learned the family motto "Love is sacrificial action." This, Pastor Gerald explains, is exactly what God did for us through the birth of Jesus, His incarnation, and the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We then dive into the Christmas story, reading from Matthew 1:18–25, reflecting on how God sacrificially gave His one and only Son to be born in humble beginnings and die on the cross for us. Jesus, though divine, emptied Himself out of His heavenly throne to become Immanuel, God with us, all because of God's perfect love. Even when humanity wandered far from God due to sin, He reconciled us back to Himself through Christ's sacrifice on the cross. As Romans 5:8 powerfully states, "God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." But the Gospel story doesn't end there. The resurrection of Jesus Christ proves God's steadfast covenant love conquers all, even death. And now by grace we are made holy before the Lord, adopted into His family. In response to this incredible salvation gift, Pastor Gerald challenges Christians everywhere to live out sacrificial love daily. He shares the story of Miss Thompson, a teacher who learned firsthand how compassion can profoundly shape a life. So no matter what storms you're facing, know that you are cherished by your Heavenly Father. May your life radiate the love of Jesus in return. Discover just how extravagant God's love is by watching this video sermon. Takeaways Love is sacrificial action and always pays a price. Jesus is the ultimate demonstration of God's love. God's love reconciles us to Himself and imparts righteousness to us through Jesus. We should love others as God loves us and demonstrate His love in our lives.
