Show Notes

Our guest today, Dr Fidele Sebahizi, is a refugee immigrant from the Congo in Africa. He was raised in a kind of poverty mostly unknown in the West, lived through an ethnic massacre in a Refugee Camp where his closet friend was murdered, and yet… came to the United States at 25 years old where he earned a bachelor’s degree, a master’s degree, and PhD in Criminal Justice. All while working in the Abilene PD.

With that, let’s get Dr Sebahizi on air to take a deep dive into his Life… Out of the Ashes.

Stumbling and Bumbling Along

Oh my…

This podcast regarding the birth narrative of Jesus is raw. Filled with ah’s and uh’s and so’s. Longer periods of silence. Very “not professional.” And yet it is filled with truth about the humble ways of the Divine.

God is not so much interested in pretty presentations as He is in powerful truths underlying the presentations. It is about the message and not the medium, because the actual medium is the Spirit of God. She grabs the message and places it into the hearts of the listeners. That means the message is not about me, it is about wonder and surprise. God’s ways are not the ways of humans.

And so, in this show on The Other Christmas Story I found myself stumbling along, bumbling like a drunkard, drunk on the Good News. The kind of News that thrusts itself into the hearts of the listeners—all by the profound and precise medium of the Holy Spirit.

Please forgive our raw awkwardness in this show and plunk yourself down in the presence of the Holy, lying in a manger or, more accurately, lying in a feeding trough in a barn.
