Christmas represents the historic moment when God became flesh, through a miraculous conception. However, we often forget that this astonishing pregnancy occurred in a very ordinary setting, through an ordinary woman. We’ll focus our attention on Mary’s beautiful song of praise on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg!

History, Mystery, Divinity
In communicating the incarnation of Christ, the gospel writers were very clear on certain key points. They were writing history, events that really happened and not legends or fables, yet those events held a deep mystery that could not be explained by natural means. The reason for this paradox is plain: the One coming to redeem the world was God Himself, divinity in the form of a human baby. In this series, Alistair Begg focuses on the principles of history, mystery, and divinity to explore Luke’s account of those who first heard about the Savior’s coming. As we observe the faith and obedience of Elizabeth, Zechariah, and Mary, we are challenged to praise God for His goodness and receive His gift of salvation.Recent Broadcasts
