Sermon summary
This message explores the nature and character of God through the name Mighty God from Isaiah 9:6, part of the Advent series He Will Be Called. The speaker argues that confidence in God's character, not only in his promises, is the foundation of faith. He describes God as powerful and eternal, unlike people who are replaced over time, and he links that power with the justice and wisdom shown in Isaiah 11, particularly God's care for the poor. The message contrasts the upside-down wisdom seen at Christmas with worldly thinking and rejects reducing faith to self-improvement without the supernatural. The service closes with communion.
