The night of our Lord's birth is remembered as one in which the calmness of the King's arrival silenced the chaos of a world desperately in need of his presence. In this very special Christmas episode, I and a special guest, Pastor Charles Robinson, sit down, briefly discuss, and sing about that special silent night.

In Genesis chapters 18 and 19, the LORD's messengers make separate visits that lay before the reader two possible ways of living: a way of hospitality, and a way of hostility. One way is intended to establish a culture of holiness and harmony. Another way courts destruction. I invite you to join me in today's episode as we explore how the LORD's visits with Abraham and the city of Sodom help frame these dueling ways as choices we all must make.

A short period after their last conversation, the LORD appears to Abraham in the form of three men. Abraham welcomes them and shows them great hospitality. They reciprocate by repeating God's promise to give Sarah a son. For understandable reasons, Sarah is incredulous. The LORD then gives Sarah something to ponder in her heart as she waits for God's promise to come true. I invite you to join me in this seasonal episode as we also ponder the wonders of our God.
