Show Notes: LIVE with David Smyth and Dawn McAvoy at Elmwood Presbyterian
When God the Son became flesh, it started not in Bethlehem but nine months before, in pregnancy.
Joseph, as husband to Mary and an earthly father to Jesus, is a fascinating example. Providing, protecting, leading and loving his family through difficulties, cultural shame and death threats.
Our friends at Evangelical Alliance join us on the Legacy Podcast LIVE at Elmwood Presbyterian. From our changing society to the desire for wholesomeness amongst young people, from a fetus to the saviour of the world. We cover a lot of ground in this conversation on faith and fatherhood.
Evangelical Alliance and Both Lives have a new resource called God Unborn, which looks at the impact of Joseph on the story of the incarnation. Download a seven-day devotional – God Unborn – here.
Also available for churches is a video resource you can play on a Sunday morning in March – 9 months before Christmas at the same link.
The Evangelical Alliance is a membership organisation of which we are a member – and you can be too! As a church, an organisation or an individual. Find out more on their website.
Both Lives is an initiative of Evangelical Alliance: a pro-women and pro-life movement – imagining a people and place that values the life and health of women and unborn children, and pursues the wellbeing of both. Find out more here.
And Legacy… that’s us! A ministry for fathers. We provide programmes for churches to help faith and fatherhood thrive. Find out more on our website. www.legacyfathers.org
