An Ordinary Yes and An Extraordinary God

• Hey friends, merry Christmas. Okay, it’s Chris here and welcome to this very special episode. Well, today I wanted to do something just a little bit different and share a Christmas message that I had the opportunity to preach at my good friend, Pastor Bianca Waters’s Ravier’s church.
• I love the family at Ravier and this is a special Christmas message all about Mary, the young woman that God chose to carry his son to the world and what her story can teach every single one of us about faith, surrender, and saying yes when God calls us. Now, this isn’t just a timely word. I truly believe that this message is going to encourage you to trust God in whatever season of life you happen to be in right now because the same God that did the miraculous through Mary is still doing the miraculous today.
• And just before we dive in, if you’d like to hear more of my sermons and Bible teaching, you can find everything that you need at christine.com/mpodcast or in the episode description below. Okay. So, let’s jump into this special Christmas message. And I pray with all that is in me that this not only fills your heart with hope and joy today, but it activates you to step into your God-given purpose and potential.
• We’re going to go and we’re continuing our Advent series. I love this season where we are waiting and we’re reflecting on the fact that Jesus Christ, the hope of the world, came to earth and is coming back again. And now the reason you know I’m talking why am I standing here when I’m talking about human trafficking and talking about the pain and suffering and sorrow on the world in the world today.
