On this holy night, Christians around the world gather to celebrate the miracle of Jesus' birth—a moment of tenderness and humility that changed the course of history. In this episode, we reflect on the profound story of Mary, a teenage mother giving birth in the humblest of settings, and how her experience of love and care points to the boundless, mother-like love of God.Exploring Luke's Gospel, we dive into Zechariah’s prophecy and the striking phrase, "by the tender mercy of our God," which speaks of a divine mercy that is "womb-like"—compassionate, nurturing, and deeply personal. Through this lens, we celebrate a God who meets us in our vulnerability and invites us into a peace that transforms and restores.
Join us as we celebrate the wonder of Christ’s birth and consider how God’s tender mercy lights our path, offering peace for the anxious, rest for the weary, and hope for the brokenhearted.
Merry Christmas!
