Episode 149: For to Us a Child is Born

Got a question about today’s episode or something else you’d like to hear us talk about on the show? Let us know! 

Isaiah prophesied that God would send us a wonderful counselor, and those words were fulfilled in the life and death of Jesus. In this episode, Dot and Cara continue their Advent series by talking about what it means to know that God is “wonderful.” They also remind us that we’re all caught in a struggle between our flesh and the Spirit, and that God’s love is big enough to overcome even the worst sins and suffering. Grab your Bible and journal and join us!
