“Martin Luther preached many Christmas sermons. He liked to emphasize that in the Christmas Gospel texts, we hear of Christ being born for and unto us! ‘His name shall be Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.’ Then Luther would preach that because we have a Savior we learn from the lowly, kind and loving way our God comes to us in a manger to save us, how we are to act toward others in our family, our church and our community.
