While the Christmas story has been told for centuries, it is more intricate than often assumed and includes many details that the modern Christian may be unfamiliar with. Dr. Craig Evans, professor at Houston Christian University, joins Joseph Backholm to highlight the cultural and historical backdrop of Herod’s rule, the fulfillment of prophecies, and the Magi’s search for a new King. He examines who Joseph and Mary were and Joseph’s dilemma over Mary’s pregnancy, emphasizing the significance of a virgin birth. With insights into the shepherds’ role and ancient symbols like long-tailed stars, Dr. Evans provides ample proof of why the greatest story ever told is true.
