Songs Before the Manger: Mary, Zechariah, and the Deep Theology of Christmas

Before angels sing over Bethlehem in Luke 2, two other voices break into song—Mary and Zechariah. In this episode of Thinking Christian, Dr. James Spencer continues the “Thinking Christian about Christmas” series by walking through Luke 1:39–79, where Mary visits Elizabeth, John the Baptist leaps in the womb, and two rich, Scripture-saturated songs frame what God is doing in the birth of Christ. James explores how the Magnificat and Zechariah’s prophecy function as “nexus passages,” pulling together themes from across the Old Testament—God’s mercy to those who fear Him, His concern for the humble and marginalized, the reversal of the proud and powerful, and the fulfillment of His covenant promises to Abraham and Israel. He shows how John’s role as forerunner and Jesus’ role as saving light are already anticipated before Jesus is even born, and why Luke wants us to see Christmas as a moment of both fulfillment and ongoing expectation. If you’ve ever rushed past Luke 1 to “get to the Christmas story,” this episode will slow you down, help you hear the songs before the manger, and deepen your grasp of what—and whom—we’re really celebrating at Christmas.

Introducing Praying for Teen Boys and Praying for Teen Girls!

Many years ago, Stacey Thacker introduced me to her friend, Angie Elkins, who is an amazing woman of God and Manager of the Lifeway Podcast Network. I've had the privilege eating chips and dip with her once or twice, and so as Stacey and I were thinking about who we could invite to interview US, and help officially introduce you to our newest books, Praying for Teen Girls (by Stacey) and Praying for Teen Boys (by me, Brooke), we just couldn't think of anyone better! Thankfully, she agreed! When you tune into the podcast today, you can hear Angie ask us questions we haven't been asked before about these books (and our prayer lives), like: * What is something about your prayer life that people would be surprised to know? * What is the connection between our desperation as moms and having a vibrant prayer life? * What is the REAL reason we have chosen to be women of prayer? * How does it help my teenager for me to be a praying mom? * What do we do with the fear that comes when we're parenting teens? ...and more! This episode is real, and raw, and a true behind-the-scenes look at our own personal prayer lives and why we are so passionate about the message of these books. PLEASE head over to your podcast player and tune in now! Interested in the books? Download the first chapters of Praying for Teen Boys and Praying for Teen Girls free when you click here!
