What were the first Christmas songs?
Long before the familiar carols we sing today, three powerful prophetic songs marked the arrival of Christ. In this episode, we dive into the revolutionary song of a teenage girl who defied empires, the breakthrough praise of a priest who had been silenced for months, and the glorious anthem sung by heaven’s hosts.
These ancient songs have shaped Christian worship for over two thousand years and still carry profound meaning today. Whether you're a worship leader, a history enthusiast, or someone seeking deeper spiritual insight this Christmas, this episode will transform how you experience the music of Advent.
