The Birth of Jesus: What the Bible Says (and What It Doesn’t)

Every Christmas we celebrate the birth of Jesus, but how much of what we believe actually comes from Scripture, and how much comes from tradition?In this episode of The Pastors’ Hangover, the pastors dive into the birth of Jesus by asking the questions many Christians quietly wonder but rarely ask out loud: Why did God choose to enter the world as a baby instead of appearing as an adult? Why does the Bible go mostly silent on Jesus’ childhood? Did Jesus know who He was as a child and that He would die? Is Christmas even biblical? And what do we do with Santa when raising our kids? This conversation separates what the Bible clearly teaches from what Scripture doesn’t say, while helping listeners anchor their faith in truth, not assumptions. If you’ve ever wrestled with the meaning of Christmas, questioned long-held traditions, or wanted a deeper understanding of Jesus’ birth, this episode is for you.
