CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE - Mike Burnard: A Christmas Season of Compassion – Celebrating the Birth of Jesus

Loading player...

In this special Christmas episode, Mike Bernard reflects on the true meaning of Christmas, reminding us that the birth of Jesus is a celebration of God's compassion for a lost world. He explains how compassion, derived from the Latin word meaning "to suffer with," defines the heart of God. Mike encourages us to embrace this compassion in the midst of global turmoil, including ongoing conflicts in Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, Sudan, and Ukraine. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus, he urges us to embody this compassion not just through receiving joy, but by sacrificially giving and identifying with others. May this Christmas season be filled with the love and compassion of Christ.
