Shownotes

Examining debates and heresies formed around the question of the personhood of Jesus Christ, Joshua Noel tries to come away with important questions to ask and lessons to learn around the Christmas narrative. We explore the controversy of Jesus' birthplace, the different ideas of how Jesus could have been fully God and fully human, and even whether or not Santa Claus punched a heretic!

.

Why is Nazareth special to Jesus? What happened in Nazareth to Jesus? Where in the Bible is Jesus of Nazareth? Where is the actual birthplace of Jesus? What did Jesus do in Bethlehem? Why was it important to show Jesus came from David's lineage? What is the lineage of Jesus in the Bible? Was Jesus lineage through Judah? Which of the following describe the unique character of Jesus? What were the two main heresies about Jesus in the early church?
