Familiarity with the Christmas story can lessen our appreciation of the incredible nature of the events surrounding the incarnation, but we must remember that they did occur and are beyond human explanation. In this sermon, Alistair Begg focuses on Luke’s account of Gabriel’s visit with Mary that foretold the Messiah’s conception and birth. The angel’s message is the cornerstone of redemption history. It calls us, like Mary, to acknowledge the mystery of God's plans and to submit to His purposes in humility and trust.

Our lives should reflect our trust in the character of God as our actions and attitudes are characterized by genuine thankfulness.
