Why Christmas Needs The Resurrection
from Capital City Christian Church | Podcast · host Ben Webb, Associate Minister
When Jesus offered an invitation to participate in this way, it wasn’t an invitation for you to believe — it was an invitation for you to follow. It was an invitation to experience him. An invitation to participate. Because Jesus believes that following him will make your life better, and it will make you better at life. And it’s why I think the best time to talk about the resurrection of Jesus is at Christmas. Because a baby in a manger doesn’t mean much. Babies being born are all too familiar. A baby born 2000 years ago doesn’t mean much… until that baby grows up and turns into a man on a cross.
