This week on the Calvary Church Podcast, we open our new Christmas series, The Whimsy of Christmas. In a season filled with wonder, joy, and sacred mystery, we begin by looking back—way back—to a moment when the world was waiting in silence.

For 400 years, God’s people lived through what’s often called the Intertestamental Period: four centuries without a prophet, without fresh Scripture, without a clear word from heaven. It was a time of longing, questions, and quiet anticipation.

And then—Christ was born.

In this opening message, “The End of the Beginning,” Pastor Nick explores how the birth of Jesus didn’t simply start the Christmas story; it brought an end to an era of silence. The arrival of Christ broke through the stillness with hope, light, and the promise that God had been working all along—even when He seemed quiet.

Join us as we rediscover the whimsy and wonder of Christmas, and remember that God often does His best work in the silence.
