The First Person Christmas episode features Wayne Shepherd in conversation with author and biographer Kevin Belmonte, reflecting on how famed evangelist D. L. Moody understood and celebrated Christmas. Through personal stories, historical anecdotes, and direct quotations, Belmonte presents Moody as a warm, humorous, deeply relational figure whose faith made spiritual truths accessible and vivid. The discussion highlights Moody’s love of family, home life in Northfield, simple pleasures like games and carriage rides with his grandchildren, and his ability to connect Christmas with themes of hope, heaven, and reunion. Moody’s descriptions of Christmas as a “lamp of promise” and heaven as a “great Christmas” reveal his gift for expressing profound theology through everyday imagery, culminating in a heartfelt prayer from 1870 that underscores his evangelistic passion and enduring spiritual legacy.
