12.28.25 “The Word Who Cannot Speak: A Christmas Sermon” - The Reverend John Kennedy
from St. Mark's New Canaan · host St. Mark's New Canaan
The First Sunday after Christmas. At Christmas, the Gospel of John proclaims a profound paradox: the Word who created the world enters it unable to speak. This sermon reflects on the Word made flesh, present among us in vulnerability and silence, from the manger to the cross. In a world that often feels anything but peaceful, Christmas insists that peace has already been given, not by escaping suffering, but by moving toward it.
