Episode 200: Why Hanukkah is for Christians Too Kristi McLelland

Send us Fan MailI’m so excited to air this interview for you at this time of year.  Last year, as a part of the Simple Seminary community, we interviewed Kristi McLelland, a Biblical Studies professor at Willamson College in middle Tennessee, after her recent visit to Chicago to celebrate Hanukkah, The Festival of Lights, with a Jewish family.  You guys, there is so much to learn about this celebration that actually happened during the inter-testamental period, between the happenings of the Old and New Testament.  This conversation is filled with passion and will enlighten you to so much, not only about the tradition and practice of Hanukkah, but also about the significance of Jesus, The Light of the World that came to pierce the darkness.  This is one of my favorite interviews of all time…and I’m so glad you are here for it.
