Overview: Through this series based on the first two chapters of Luke’s gospel, we explore the event of the birth of Jesus Christ and how that impacts us today. The birth of Jesus was and is a pivotal moment in history marked by the Son of God agreeing to become human in Jesus Christ without ceasing to be God: “Jesus came to the world in the most innocent, dependent, and vulnerable form imaginable—a baby. He was God Almighty in disguise” (Timothy Laniak).
