Because of His love for mankind, the Creator chose to confine Himself to a humble human body so that man could know Him. That’s the Christmas story. Dr. David Jeremiah unpacks that truth, which has challenged and inspired the human race for over two thousand years. What does it mean that God is with us?

God with us. Just three little words from Matthew’s account of the Nativity story. But those three words radically changed the course of human history. Dr. David Jeremiah looks more deeply into the meaning of “God with us” and the impact of the Creator becoming human in the person of Jesus.

Did the Wise Men give gold, frankincense, and myrrh to young Jesus because they were the most valuable gifts? Or the most meaningful? Dr. David Jeremiah answers that question with insights on how each of those gifts reflects Christ as King, Priest and Savior.

Christ’s birth in a lowly stable is a detail of the Nativity story that’s covered in just a few words of Luke. But it has profound significance for every person on earth. Dr. David Jeremiah ponders the importance of God in the flesh arriving in this most humble of circumstances.

The announcement of Jesus’ birth was so significant it was delivered by an angel army—to an audience just as unique: a tiny gathering of rural shepherds. Dr. David Jeremiah explains why these simple men were chosen as the first to receive the greatest news ever given.

To understand the significance of the city of Bethlehem you have to reach deep into the history of the Old Testament. Bethlehem is mentioned thirty-five different times, in eleven different books, over a period of thirteen hundred years. Bethlehem was prepared for the birth of Christ historically.

In a culture that sees Christmas as little more than a commercial event, it’s vital not to forget its real meaning. Dr. David Jeremiah begins the series, Why the Nativity?, to get back to the heart of the Christmas story and answer the questions many people have about what it really means.

Dr. David Jeremiah shines the spotlight on Mary, the young girl who demonstrated faith and obedience beyond her years, leading God to favor her with the privilege of raising His Son.

The story of Christ’s birth is the ultimate love story—a story that can be expressed in a single word: Immanuel. Dr. David Jeremiah considers the significance of that word, which means “God with us,” and why it makes Christmas worth celebrating every day of the year.

During the holiday season we gratefully take stock of the many blessings the Lord has brought into our lives. Dr. David Jeremiah offers a biblical framework in the form of doxologies – or expressions of praise to God – for the specific ways in which He shows His love.

Did you know there are two types of Thanksgiving? We are well acquainted with the secondary type—giving thanks to God for all the good gifts we receive from Him. The lesser-known but fundamental primary type is thankfulness for the God who gives us all of our good gifts. It is this primary type that allows us to look up into heaven and give thanks to God even when things are falling apart all around us.

If we don’t deal with trouble in our life, it can quickly turn into fear. David understood that, and his thoughts about fear could fill a book. Dr. David Jeremiah opens Psalm 27, a psalm of David, for wisdom in troubled times.
