The Meaning of Christmas

The Heavenly Banquet

In this episode Chad Rhodes and Charlotte Elia continue to celebrate Christmas by chatting about the nativity stories, the meaning of the incarnation, and their favorite Christmas carols.

Chad: When Christmas comes around, it’s such a great time to think about just the wonder of what it means for the Word of God to take on flesh and live among us, as it is in John’s Gospel. I don’t think there’s anything more marvelous or wonderful than that. And it’s near impossible to express without saying things that at least sound completely paradoxical. So, for instance, the one who came into this world as a tiny baby is the same one through whom this world came into being.
