Humility and Exaltation: The Story of Mary
In contrast with the regal adornment she wears in medieval art, Mary acknowledges in her inspired song, the Magnificat, that God has looked on her “humble estate,” not on her worldly dignity or righteousness (Luke 1:46–55). In this episode, Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Walter Strickland, and Bob Hiller explore the story of Mary, just another Jewish girl from a nondescript family who became the mother of God.

Redemption and Repentance: The Story of Bathsheba
The story of Uriah’s wife does not exactly scream Christmas cheer. Yet, as we reflect on the Mothers of Jesus, we cannot overlook that just as Jesus was born in Bethlehem, Matthew traces his lineage back to the town of David. Though sentimentality is absent from Bathsheba’s story, Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Walter Strickland, and Bob Hiller reveal the incredible hope that challenges our cynicism about how God works through His people—and even their sin—to fulfill His purposes.

In the story of Rahab, we encounter a startling twist in the narrative of redemption.
