The Nativity isn’t just a Christmas story—it’s the story of parents doing their best with uncertainty, fear, and faith
In this special Christmas episode, we reflect on the first Christmas through faith, family, and hope, as the Nativity story comes to life in a truly meaningful way. A special group of children joins us to share the story of the birth of Jesus in their own heartfelt voices, reminding us of the innocence, wonder, and truth at the center of Christmas.
Brad Broyles and Nathan Palmer then offer a powerful parent-focused faith reflection, walking listeners through what Joseph and Mary experienced—uncertainty, fear, obedience, and unwavering trust in God—as they prepared for the birth of Christ. Through a parent’s perspective, this conversation highlights how the Nativity is not just a biblical account, but a story every family can relate to.
This episode speaks directly to parents navigating stress, exhaustion, and the unknown, offering reassurance that hope is present even in life’s most overwhelming moments. Just as God provided light in the darkness on the first Christmas, He continues to meet families today with peace, purpose, and promise.
Whether you’re listening as a family, a parent seeking encouragement, or someone longing to reconnect with the true meaning of Christmas, this episode serves as a reminder that faith grows strongest when life feels uncertain.
May this episode give you light, love and faith during this season.
Merry Christmas!
