In this episode we examine Luke 1–2 to show that the true Spirit of Christmas is worship — an inward, Godward response as seen in Mary, Elizabeth, Zacharias, the angels, the shepherds, Simeon, and Anna.
We contrast superficial holiday rituals with heartfelt praise, and this highlights Mary’s recognition that this child was her Savior, and points listeners to Christ as Savior who brings peace and redemption. (Remastered).
