Episode 98 - What Child Is This?

What Child is this who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary

What memories do you have of hearing or singing this Christmas carol? What do the words of this carol bring to mind or stir in your heart? Why do you think the circumstances of Jesus’ birth are so significant? By sacrificing His own life, what did Christ do for us that we could never do for ourselves? What does that mean to you personally? How does the fact that Jesus was “one of us,” affect your relationship with Him? How has the promise of Christ’s return given you hope in your daily life? How have you responded to Christ’s knock on the door of your heart? How has that affected your life? How can you celebrate that this Christmas season and throughout the year?

This week we talk about these thoughts in this week's episode of Connecting the Gap. Join us this week as we discuss the true person of Jesus as the Baby, the Lamb of God, the Man, and our returning King!
