Reframing Jesus, Part 5: "The Friend of the Outcast" (Christmas Eve) // Jimmy McLoud
About This Series
Many people in first-century Israel had expectations that the Promised One would be a conquering king, a strict enforcer, or a political liberator. But Jesus shattered these assumptions, revealing Himself as a humble servant, a compassionate healer, and a friend to the outcast. Two thousand years later, many people still misunderstand who Jesus truly is. This Christmas, we’ll explore common misconceptions about the Messiah and uncover the powerful truths of His mission, offering a fresh perspective on the Savior who defied expectations and changed the world.
This Week's Episode
People expected the Messiah to associate with the religious elite and those in power. Instead, Jesus spent time with the marginalized, such as tax collectors, sinners, and the poor, demonstrating that God’s love extends to everyone.
