Sometimes we tend to oversimplify the birth of Jesus as a little more than a date that marks our December calendars.

And yet, an in-depth study about Jesus' birth exposes the theological underpinnings of the Christian faith.

And the miracle of the incarnation gives us even more reason to celebrate Christmas Day with joy.

Merry Christmas! We're delighted you've chosen to join us for today's Insight for Living,

in which Chuck Swindall invites us to follow a New Testament thread of verses that embody

the Christian miracle. But first, this musical treat from talented soloist Paige Brumley.

They journeyed for a weary pair. They sought for shelter from the cold night air

Some place where she could lay her head

Where she could give her babe the quiet bed

Was there no room, no corner there,

In all the town a spot someone could spare?

Was there no soul come to their aid?

A stable bear was where the family stayed.

Do you have room for the Savior?

Do you seek Him and you?

Have you a place for the one who lived and died for you?

Are you as humble as a shepherd boy?

Or as wise as men of old would you have come that night would you have sought the light do you have room a star arose a wondrous, A sign from God this was the holy night,

And yet so few would come to see

This babe were born to rescue you and me.

This child divine is now a king,

the gift of life to all the world he brings.
