About the Series

Divesting Divinity - The self-emptying of Jesus (Lent)

Join us in-person or online Sundays for our series, 'Divesting Divinity'. This Lent we are pondering the mystery of how the God of the universe 'emptied' himself to become human; that God who is above all things came below all things in Jesus. This self-sacrificing and self-giving is the way of Jesus; the way of the one who is fully God and fully human. Henri Nouwen talks about this as "downward mobility"--instead of striving for "upwards mobility" of gaining power and influence, Jesus was downwardly mobile, giving up power.
