Why did Jesus have to suffer as a human? We dig into the incarnation, exploring how Christ’s suffering shapes our faith and offers real hope in our own struggles.
In this episode of Naughty vs. Nice, Todd, Laura, and Kelly reflect on aging, memory lapses, and what it means to live as “indoor cats”—before diving deep into the heart of Christian faith: the incarnation of Christ. Together they explore how the humanity of Jesus transforms our understanding of suffering, reconciliation, and spiritual growth.
The conversation highlights why the incarnation matters far beyond Christmas theology—showing that reconciliation with God begins at Christ’s conception and continues through His life, death, and resurrection. They challenge listeners to ground themselves in Scripture, to see suffering as a means of transformation, and to pursue a deeper relationship with God beyond the basics of salvation.
From modern temptations to the lifelong tension of living as citizens of a new kingdom, this episode encourages believers to anchor themselves in Christ’s example and walk faithfully in a world that often resists truth.
