Elder Tad R. Callister shares his insights on the Savior's condescension in this book, emphasizing the magnitude of the sacrifice Jesus made by leaving His heavenly home for a mortal abode.

"

The Savior's descent to humanity was personally announced by the Savior to Nephi on that first Christmas Eve. Behold, the time is at hand. On the morrow I come into the world. Oh, the magnitude of that sacrifice, that condescension!

That night God the Son traded His heavenly home with all its celestial adornments for a mortal abode with all its primitive trappings. He, the King of heaven, the Lord Omnipotent who reigneth, left a throne to inherit a manger.

He exchanged the dominion of a God for the dependence of a babe. He gave up wealth, power, dominion and the fullness of His glory. For what?

For taunting, mocking, humiliation and subjection. It was a trade of unparalleled dimension, a condescension of incredible proportions, a descent of incalculable depth. And so the great Jehovah, Creator of worlds without number, infinite in virtue and power, made His entry into this world in swaddling clothes and a manger.
