We’re going to do the 12 days of Christmas a little different this year. Instead of a “Partridge in a Pear Tree” it’s “A child born to pay our penalty.” Over these 12 podcasts, join us in pondering the significance of Christ’s birth: why did Jesus come in the first place; why did angels visit lowly shepherds; what is the significance of the Wisemen‘s gifts; and how one man did the unimaginable in fulfilling a statistically impossible number of prophecies with His birth?! It’s a time of Christmas reflection, celebration and fun and we would love for you to join us as we unwrap this amazing story! On this episode, we talk about the direct links from Abraham's obedience, to Jesus', to ours (hopefully). And the old man and woman you may have never heard of that are faith heroes in this story.  Rachelle & Carder host a radio morning show in Houston. You can listen on 89.3 KSBJ or online at KSBJ.org.  Life can be hard and overwhelming, and you might not always know what to do. We are a Christian Media Ministry sharing continuous encouragement. We help you connect more deeply with God so you can live with hope.
