Series Synopsis
The story of the birth of Christ is wrapped also in the story of Mary, the mother of Jesus. This young girl, chosen directly by God to give birth to the Savior of Israel, figures prominently in the advent of God in the flesh. But what was she really like? What was her mindset not only about God but about herself? In this Christmas series, Steve looks at Mary the mother of Jesus through Mary’s own inspired song, The Magnificat. In this song, a right and biblical view of this delightful young woman chosen by God is revealed as she deflects all glory to God her Savior.
