Finding Your Part in God's Plan
In this special Christmas episode, Herbie Newell reflects on the extraordinary roles of key figures in the Christmas story and how their actions reveal our part in God’s plan. From Mary’s faithful obedience and Joseph’s protective leadership to the shepherds and angels proclaiming hope and glory, we’re reminded that even in the mundane, God calls us to play significant roles in fulfilling His purpose. As we celebrate Christ’s birth, let’s consider how we can embrace our unique calling to manifest the gospel to orphans, vulnerable families, and those in need, living as witnesses to His grace and redemption.
