Well let me say today, Merry Christmas. I hope it's a very, very special day for you.

This day we celebrate, that we have been rescued from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light and all that God has for us.

Today's broadcast will really make your Christmas Day. Stick around.

Welcome to this edition of Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram.

The mission of these daily programs is to intentionally disciple Christians

through the Bible teaching of Chip Ingram. Let me first say, Merry Christmas,

and thanks for joining us as we're in the middle of our series,

The Great Rescue,

hope for a world in need of a Savior.

Today Chip continues talking about God's profound agenda that drove the Christmas story,

and why, if we're not careful, we can overlook Christ's entire purpose in coming to Earth.

But before we get going, if this is your first time listening

that is destroying their lives and the people around them.
