As Christmas Eve approaches, Pastors Jen, Jad, and Melissa invite listeners to look beyond the familiar glow of candles and carols and rediscover the deeper, incarnational meaning of this holy night. Rooted in Isaiah’s promise of light in the darkness and the grounded reality of Luke 2, this episode of Your Week with St. Luke’s reflects on a God who does not arrive in perfection or comfort, but enters fully into a world of dust, blood, struggle, and hope. The conversation explores how the incarnation calls us to stop looking away from suffering, to understand peace as real reconciliation and justice, and to embrace a faith shaped by God’s nearness rather than distance. Ultimately, the pastors remind us that Christmas is about making room—within ourselves and our communities—for Christ to be born anew, growing in us and calling us into lives of presence, love, and incarnational discipleship.
