In this Advent study, we pause our Isaiah series to dig into one of the most central and world-changing doctrines of the Christian faith: the incarnation. What does it mean to say Jesus is fully God and fully human—and why does it matter for salvation?

We walk through the meaning of “incarnation” (God taking on flesh), the biblical foundations for Christ’s full divinity and true humanity (John 1, Philippians 2, Colossians 1, Hebrews, and more), and the gospel logic behind it: only God can save us, and only a true human can represent us.

The episode also traces the road to Chalcedon, showing how the early church clarified orthodox Christology against common misunderstandings—without losing the mystery that remains at the heart of Christmas: the eternal Son of God wrapped in the ordinary, redeeming our humanity from the inside out.

If you’ve ever wondered what makes Christianity truly unique, why doctrine matters, or why Christmas is far more than sentiment, this conversation will deepen your worship and sharpen your faith.

Only Jesus.
