  • Christmas with Dr. Scott Hahn | Tracing the Fulfillment of Prophecies
    Dec 15 2025
    To most, the Incarnation is so familiar that we have lost touch with what a scandal the manger would have been in its time. In this Advent and Christmas episode, Matt Fradd welcomes Biblical scholar, Dr. Scott Hahn, to examine prophetic texts of the Old Testament that lay the ground for the arrival of the Christ child, covenants that prepared the way, and the earth shattering reality of God becoming an embryo. Together they uncover the layers and depth of the Christmas scriptures and God's plan for you, while exploring typology, the significance of Mary's role in salvation history, and the meaning of the manger.
