January 7–13, 2024 is the 82nd Annual Assemblies of God Week of Prayer.
The theme verse of the week is Habakkuk 3:2: “Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, Lord. Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy.”

This is part two of my conversation with Craig Keener about the historicity of the details of Jesus’ birth.
According to the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, Christ’s birth was attended by many miracles: angelic visitations, prophetic dreams, the miraculous birth of John the Baptist, and the virginal conception of Christ himself. The first Christmas, then, was a thoroughly supernatural event.
Those miraculous elements have led many to question whether Jesus was born the way the Gospels say He was.
In this episode of the Influence Podcast, I conclude my conversation with Craig Keener about whether Christmas really happened. I’m George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host.
