As the twinkling lights of the holiday season cast a warm glow over our homes, I, Stephen Feith, invite you on a journey that transcends the bright decorations and festive cheer. Picture this: a home brimming with the sounds of Christmas music, the laughter of children anticipating their birthdays, and a heartwarming transition from Thanksgiving to a season that's not just about merriment, but about embracing God's greatest gift to humanity. In our latest podcast episode, I reveal the intimate moments that make my family's celebrations special, my personal triumph over a fear of heights to adorn our abode with lights, and most importantly, how these treasured traditions mirror the deeper significance of Christmas for us followers of Jesus.
As the pastor at Madison Church, I delve into an often overlooked narrative of Christmas—one where the radical love of Jesus Christ shines brightly through his acceptance of the marginalized, as seen in the evocative story from Luke 7. Our discussion meanders through the challenges of feeling unworthy, the tenderness of Christ's unconditional love, and the profound implications of that love for our daily lives. This episode isn't just a retelling of the nativity story; it's an invitation to experience a transformative love that calls us to action, to extend compassion beyond the confines of our comfort zones, and to truly understand the essence of Emmanuel, "God with us." Join me as we reflect on the promise of Advent and the profound impact of Jesus's birth on our understanding and practice of love.
