Episode description
We're discussing the very familiar lectionary text for Christmas Day in today's episode: 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being.
As you'll hear Adam, Kiri, and Mason ask Sarah Stenson, we can roll over the incredible meaning of these words from how familiar it is. As you'll hear Sarah explain, this text is the basis for the entire Christian faith.
Adam, Kiri, and Mason ask:
- What is the John referring to in the Word?
- What does it mean to enlighten and how does that relate to universalism?
- How does the world not know its Creator?
