Welcome to embolden. We're through Bible scripture and commentary. We seek a bold fate. And in doing so, we share the amazing love and message of the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Hello, I'm Chris Shetter. I'm an ordinary Christian seeking a deeper relationship with our extraordinary God. Won't you join me? Hi friends, we've embarked on a journey of love through the book of the Holy Bible.
These little love notes of God's that are dotted throughout the Bible are reminders of how much He loves us and how we can love Him by loving others. I hope you enjoy the series. Today's love note from God comes from 1 John 4 10. This is love.
Not that we love God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. And our commentary today comes from Dietrich Bonhoeffer's God is in the manger. And that is the wonder of all wonders that God loves the lowly. God is not ashamed of the lowliness of human beings.
God marches in. He chooses people as His instruments and performs His wonders where one would least expect them. God is near the least of men. He loves the lost, the neglected, the unseemly, the excluded, the weak, and the broken.
Amen. I hope you enjoyed this episode of the Embolden Podcast. Be sure to follow along so you don't miss any episode. And check out my blog at Embolden.net.
