Christmas: Where It All Began

from The Seminary Explores Hosted by United Lutheran Seminary

Dr. Christianson talks with the Dr. Mark Vitalis Hoffman, Professor Of Biblical Studies at Gettysburg Seminary about Christmas and where it all began. Did you know only Matthew and Luke have Christmas stories and even these have some differences? Learn about the role of the shepherds, angels, wise men and manger. We will also explore the purpose of the birth narratives: Emmanuel, “god with us”; and “go and tell”.
