Description

Silence. After 400 years of not hearing the voice of God the time had come for Him to make His presence known once again to His people. But it certainly would be different this time.

In the Old Testament, God made His presence known through a burning bush, a pillar of cloud, an angel, a still, small voice. He was faithfully with His people, but there was also a distance—a reverent divide created by His holiness and mankind’s sin.

But this time—this time He would come closer than ever before. This time His feet would tread the earth. His laugh would fill a room. His presence would be made known in an entirely different way. He would be flesh and bone and grace and truth. He would be Immanuel—the incarnate Christ; He would be God with us.

And it all began in a town called Bethlehem a long time ago. That’s where heaven met earth in the first crying breath of a baby boy born on a quiet night in a stable. Joseph and Mary were the couple chosen by God to raise this child—the King of Kings and Lord of Lords—in His earthly home.

They had traveled to Bethlehem in response to a decree. This decree directed every man to return to the land of his fathers to be registered. So, Joseph brought Mary along with him, for they were engaged to be married.

She was pregnant, but the child was not Joseph’s. This child was knitted together by the Holy Spirit in her womb. This child would be a man born of a woman, but He would also be fully God in the flesh. This baby boy growing inside Mary was the One to bring life—to bring hope. He was the One who would change the world forever.

What is a web license?

We've added a Web License upgrade on select products to give you more freedom in how you share the video with your congregation, and this video qualifies. The web license includes our standard license (public performance in a single setting), as well as a couple of additional features:

The Web License allows you to:

  • Post the video on your website (using a native player)
  • Include the video in a live stream of your service online
  • Include the video in a recording of your service online

The Web License DOES NOT allow you to:

  • Upload the video to youtube or other video sharing sites UNLESS posted in the context of a service
  • Broadcast the video on television or any other medium

* While this license makes the content available for you to use in these ways, we cannot guarantee that social sharing sites like Facebook and YouTube will not flag or block this content unintentionally. We encourage testing to ensure these possible issues don't arise as you stream or share your service online.

** Streaming Worship Tracks requires a CCLI Streaming License

MOV – Best for Mac users or those using presentation software that prefer QuickTime files. Offers excellent quality and smooth playback on Apple devices.

MP4 – Best for most users. Works across Windows, Mac, and most presentation software. Delivers high-quality video with a smaller file size.
