Description

Christmastime provides an opportunity to reflect on what we believe about the most important questions. We are confronted with the person of Jesus Christ and the gospel message. Despite this reality, many do not take Jesus seriously or think He is relevant to their lives. The result is that the Christmas season becomes spiritually shallow.


In this episode, I discuss how both intellectual apathy and distraction function as spiritual barriers for many people. In addition, I explain how the gospel provides an antidote to these vices.
