To most, the Incarnation is so familiar that we have lost touch with what a scandal the manger would have been in its time. In this Advent and Christmas episode, Matt Fradd welcomes Biblical scholar, Dr. Scott Hahn, to examine prophetic texts of the Old Testament that lay the ground for the arrival of the Christ child, covenants that prepared the way, and the earth shattering reality of God becoming an embryo. Together they uncover the layers and depth of the Christmas scriptures and God's plan for you, while exploring typology, the significance of Mary's role in salvation history, and the meaning of the manger.

Ha! "The prayer before the Hail Mary" is spot on and made me laugh. My husband and I are converts from Southern Baptist/Pentacostal backgrounds and I remember the first time praying the rosary hiding in my bed. Thanks for sharing your story, it resonates with our own on multiple points, I especially appreciated the "stages of conversion" because that terror phase is hard to explain sometimes. And thanks Matt Frad for all you do! You were the 1st Catholic podcast I listened to. :)

I know matt wont read this but if anyone is curious female pitbulls were bred to protect the children of royals and the males were bred to take down bulls in spain thats why bulls have that ring on their nose because the pitbull would lock their jaw on it to bring the charging bull to the ground which is pretty cool

lol... sacrifice is real, ya? the answer is yes. but in the words of Maxwell Smart, when confronted with questions like this: "and loving it!" Today, was my grandsons first communion...my heart was bursting with pride to see the man, my son has become, in raising a good child, children in fact, and the same for my daughter and her two girls... so many blessings. so yes, marriage does all those things, but I'd not change a thing.

This podcast seems to continually slide from actual theological content to intensely conservative Christian opining. There are problematic issues with the social Media episode. I will state one of the issues here. The reference on women’s decline in happiness fails to site the actual study. A quick search will produce these statistics, where one can easily discover that β€˜feminism’ is NOT the cause for that decline but rather that there are now more reference points to consider.

I really enjoy listening to Fr Malachy. I didn’t know he was back from Nicaragua. This was great. Thanks for bringing him, Matt.

Interesting discussion. The straw man about Luther was pretty cringe, though.
