There’s Something About Mary

Egg nog, ugly sweaters, decorations, jingles, and watching The Grinch—Christmas has a way of slowing the world down and inviting us into something meaningful, whether we consider ourselves religious or not. In this episode, There’s Something About Mary, we step back from the noise and look at the origin of Christmas through the life of a teenage girl named Mary.

You don’t have to be a Christian to respect what happened two thousand years ago. A single life sparked a movement that shaped history, culture, and the world we live in today. And that life entered the world because Mary said yes. This episode explores the often-missed Jewish context of her story, the courage behind her decision, and why her willingness still matters.

More than a Christmas story, this is an invitation. If Mary could wake up one ordinary day, be confronted with her destiny, and choose yes—what might be possible if you did the same? A reflective and encouraging episode designed for anyone who wants to understand why Christmas matters and how one brave yes can change everything.
