Sinopsis
Central is a non-denominational Christian church that meets in the suburb of Port Kembla, Wollongong, Australia. This podcast is a recording of our Sunday sermon. In our gatherings we often have dialogue, ask questions, and listen to each other, not just the preacher. For this reason, what you hear here has been edited to remove bits and pieces of discussion that would otherwise be recorded as 'dead-space'. We hope you enjoy and are encouraged by what you hear. If you'd like to find out more about us you can find us at centralchurch.org.au or www.facebook.com/centralchurchportkembla/

The Incarnation - Kenosis
06/12/2018 Duración: 38minKenosis is a word used by Paul in Phil 2 to describe the self-emptying of Christ in his incarnation. Caro raises the idea that this kenosis, rather than being a one-time event in the person of Jesus, may in fact reveal something to us about the nature of God, that He is eternally self-emptying. We then look at what this teaches us about our own spirituality.
