Seen through the lens of its supernatural origins, with its many fantastical elements, it’s rather remarkable that we believe the Christmas story at all. Being a part of a community of faith, where the story is believed and revered and passed down from generation to generation, it’s easy to lose sight of how this narrative sounds to others. Our friends and neighbors hear it as religious mythology and shake their heads at our naïveté. Which prompts this question: why do we believe it? One answer is this: because of the supernatural work of Holy Spirit.
