Listen "God Didn’t Wait for Safety: The Real Meaning of Christmas"
Episode Synopsis
Christmas is often presented as calm, gentle, and safe.But the original Christmas story tells a very different truth.In this episode, Lorraine looks at what really happened when God entered the world, not through power or permission, but through quiet obedience inside a hostile system.This isn’t a sentimental reflection.It’s an invitation to see Christmas through a clearer lens.In this episode, we explore:Why Jesus was born into a world marked by control and fearWhat it means that God didn’t wait for safety or approvalHow obedience, not visibility or force, is how the Kingdom advancesWhy the Christmas story still confronts systems of false authority todayThis episode is for anyone who feels the tension between faith and a world that increasingly demands silence or compliance.As the year closes, this conversation invites reflection, not just on Christmas, but on what obedience looks like now.🎄 A thoughtful, Christ-centred episode to sit with as Christmas approaches.
