The Mystery of the Incarnation


There is a priest who I admire, but he sometimes makes mistakes. It is my misfortune to be around when he does. I will avoid a sin of detraction by not identifying him.

Christus natus est.


Christ is born. We celebrate this liturgically and in the secular world on Christmas Day. December 25.

Christus incarnatus est.


Christ is incarnated. Christ takes on a human nature. We celebrate this liturgically on the Solemnity of the Annunciation. March 25.


Life begins at conception. Am I pedantic?
