Episode Synopsis

Christianity is often treated like tradition, mythology, or moral teaching -- but what if it's something far more disruptive than that? In this episode, we explore why the story of Jesus is rooted in real history, why it refuses to fit into the category of myth, and how an unlikely birth set in motion the most powerful movement the world has ever known.🗝️ Key Topics(2:19) Christianity Begins with Revelation, Not Human Imagination(8:14) God Did Not Remain Distant -- He Entered Our World(13:37) The Story of Jesus Is Rooted in Real History, Not Myth(18:32) God Uses Ordinary, Broken People for Extraordinary Purposes📖 Key Scriptures⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠John 1:1-4, 14💬Quote from the Episode"Myths are man's way to explain God.
