Luke 2:1-20 The Birth of Jesus Explained TEASER

Luke 2 explains the true meaning of Christmas. But since Christmas wasn't celebrated until hundreds of years after Luke wrote his Gospel, the reverse isn't true. Christmas can't explain the true meaning of Luke 2. That leaves open the question: what exactly did Luke have in mind when he first penned this famous story? What was his point? The biblical scholar David Gooding provides a compelling answer in his book "According to Luke" and this video attempts to expand on his main point.

iPUB's mission is to promote meaningful conversation about the Bible with the non-believing. Most of the time, we create content for a non-believing audience (check out the main iPUB channel and/or website at iPUB.org). When I have a little extra time, I draw from my experience of talking to the non-believing and create content for fellow Christians. These short videos address biblical passages relevant to Christianity’s public witness.
