Do Christians really have to believe in the virgin birth—or is it just a poetic detail of the Christmas story? In this podcast episode, we explore one of the central questions of Christian apologetics. Many people admire Jesus, appreciate his ethics, and are drawn to the Christian faith—but stumble over the supernatural. Especially the idea that Mary became pregnant through the Holy Spirit without knowing a man. Do Christians really have to believe in the virgin birth—or is it just a poetic detail of the Christmas story? In this podcast episode, we explore one of the central questions of Christian apologetics. Many people admire Jesus, appreciate his ethics, and are drawn to the Christian faith—but stumble over the supernatural. Especially the idea that Mary became pregnant through the Holy Spirit without knowing a man. Based on the arguments of Gavin Ortlund (drawing on J. Gresham Machen and Ryan Putman), we show: why the virgin birth is not a matter of interpretation, but a question of truth why its rejection usually stems from a naturalistic worldview why it is closely connected to the person and work of Jesus and what is at stake when it is reinterpreted "symbolically" This episode is biblically sound, apologetically clear, and pastorally sensitive. It is aimed particularly at young Christians, seekers, and skeptics who honestly ask: What truly belongs to the core of the Christian faith? Listen now, think along, and feel free to ask critical questions. CHAPTERS 1. The Virgin Birth: Embarrassing Relic or Central Truth? 2. Welcome & Why This Question Is Explosive 3.
