174. The True Miracle of Christmas

Have you ever had a terrible Christmas? Do you find yourself getting caught up in making things look perfect, even though you’re exhausted or feeling alone? When the Christmas season rolls around, we often forget the true miracle of Christmas. Join hosts Elisa Morgan, Eryn Eddy Adkins, and Vivian Mabuni as they trace the Lord’s promises throughout Scripture to remind us of Immanuel, God with us. Join us for this special God Hears Her podcast Christmas Bible study.   Notes and Quotes:  “We have a hard time at Christmas, sometimes, because we don’t have a very realistic view of it. We imagine it to be something magical, instead of it being something truly, divinely miraculous. When we understand the miracle of Christmas, it changes our ‘rotten’.” —Elisa Morgan “In the midst of the really hard, I can’t really see the miraculous unless I’m with God. . .” —Vivian Mabuni “No matter the unpredictable Christmas I will get, I can rest knowing that the Lord will carry me through, and be there for me. —Eryn Eddy Adkins “When we pause long enough to imagine that this God of the universe, our Immanuel God, that He wants to have His presence within us. . . He promises His spirit within us to help us with what we need.” —Elisa Morgan   Verses:  Luke 1:39-56 Matthew 1:18-23 Genesis 26:3 Genesis 31:3 Exodus 3:12 Joshua 1:15 Isaiah 41:10 Isaiah 43:2 Jeremiah 1:8 Matthew 28:20 Romans 8:26-27 Luke 10:38-42   Links:  God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc  Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Carols of Christmas Video: Eryn’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Elisa’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Vivian’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://www.odbm.org/   MB01LJ0CE2QUFNB
