Summary

Oh, friends, Merry Christmas! On this day of celebration, Stasi simply wants to invite you to take a few moments to reflect on the beauty and wonder of the Christmas story: the story of the invasion of the Kingdom! The coming of our Savior as a babe in Bethlehem – Emmanuel, God with us – fills us with gratitude, joy, awe, and hope as we look forward to Him coming again! As we celebrate the birth of Jesus today, let’s remember and rejoice, together!…..SHOW NOTES:…..VERSES: Luke 2:1–20 (NIV) — The Christmas Story, the birth of JesusRevelation 12:1–6 — The Woman and the DragonPhilippians 2:6–7 — Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.John 1:14 — The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.Colossians 1:15–20 — The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.…..RESOURCES:Intro Music: Sing Lullaby | Herbert Howells | Faire Is The Heaven – Music of the English Church https://spoti.fi/4gEjJjoEncounter Music: Waiting | The Longing | Kimberly and Alberto Rivera https://spoti.fi/3DjfSKtOutro Music: The Hallelujah Chorus | London Philharmonic Choir https://spoti.fi/3VG91Rq…..Don’t Miss Out on the Next Episode – Subscribe for FreeSubscribe using your favorite podcast app:Spotify Podcasts – https://spoti.fi/42SsOipApple Podcasts – https://apple.co/42E0oZ1 Google Podcasts – http://wahe.art/3M81kxLAmazon Music & Audible – https://amzn.to/3M9u6hJ
