In this episode of Also Featured In The Cast, we turn to the New Testament and focus on two remarkable figures who surrounded Mary in the unfolding story of Christ’s birth—Elizabeth and Joseph. Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, prophetically recognized the miracle growing within Mary’s womb. Her faith and affirmation strengthened the young woman chosen to bear the Son of God. And Joseph—often overlooked and silent in the nativity story—embodies quiet obedience and steady faith.
Through their lives, we see how God weaves the supernatural into the ordinary. The Christian life, like theirs, is not always filled with angels and miracles—it’s often laundry, hard work, and perseverance. Yet even in the mundane, God’s presence remains.
Learning to walk naturally in the supernatural, and supernaturally in the natural—that’s the essence of a Spirit-filled life.
