This is a good 11 minute video that talks about some of our most beloved Christmas hymns!

I unpacked the history/story behind the hymn, "O Holy Night." If you missed that message and want to catch up on it, you can do so by clicking --> here <--.

These songs help us focus on the two humblings that the Son of God made of himself, found in Philippians 2 - first he humbled himself by becoming man (the incarnation -- Christmas!) and then by death on a cross (Good Friday).

"...Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."

This passage is even referenced by Adriel in the video on the Christmas hyms, which you can access below!
