HUMILITY

Welcome from the Dean

"And being found in human form, he humbled himself..." –Philippians 2:5–8

Let us ponder the magnitude of the incarnation — God becomes human like us, yet simultaneously remains God. Who would have imagined? The humility of the Christ child evokes deep awe. O come let us adore him, we often sing. This Christmas, may Jesus continue to amaze and inspire us. And may we continue to offer our hearts and treasures to the King of Kings - Jesus!

Merry Christmas!
Rev. Dr. Kimberlee A. Johnson,
Interim Dean,
Palmer Theological Seminary

An Advent Reflection:
Who Would Have Thought?

There are so many questions we may ask throughout our journey of believing and hoping in Christ. We will ask ourselves, especially during Advent Season, what does all of this mean? Besides the bright lights, gift giving, and Christmas music speaking of a man in a chimney, we will reflect on a baby born with a mission to become the Savior of the world.
