Year A, the First Sunday of Christmas

Join Fr. Aaron & Marissa Burt for this week's episode, in which they consider the readings for the first Sunday of Christmas: Isaiah 61:10-62:5; Psalm 147:12-20; Galatians 3:23-4:7; John 1:1-18. 

They discuss the garden & restoration imagery of Isaiah, the guardianship metaphors of Galatians, and the way God's glory is fully revealed in Jesus Christ.
