An Inspirational Christmas Sermon

Author: The Living Hour December 25, 2025 Duration: 14:24

Listen to episode 1081 of the Inspirational Living podcast: An Inspirational Christmas Sermon. Edited and adapted from All These Things Added by James Allen, published in 1903.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: THE mountain bends not to the fiercest storm, but it shields the fledgling and the lamb; and though all people tread upon it, yet it protects them, and bears them up upon its sturdy bosom. So it is also with the meek among us, who compassionately bend to shield the lowliest creature, and, though they may be despised, lift all others up and lovingly protect them. 

As glorious as the mountain in its silence are the divine man and woman in their silent Meekness; like the mountainous form, their loving embrace is expansive and sublime. Truly their body, like the mountain’s base, is fixed in the valleys and the mists; but the summit of their being is eternally bathed in cloudless glory, and lives with the majestic Silence.

For nearly a decade, the voices of some of history's most profound thinkers have found a new home in the modern day. Inspirational Living: Life Lessons for Success & Happiness, from The Living Hour, draws directly from the original texts of classic writers like Ralph Waldo Emerson, Helen Keller, and Booker T. Washington. Instead of modern interpretations, each episode is carefully adapted from their actual essays and books, allowing their timeless wisdom on perseverance, inner peace, and purpose to speak for itself. This approach creates a unique space where personal growth is explored through a historical lens, connecting lessons from the past to the challenges of today. With over twenty-five million downloads, the podcast has become a trusted resource for anyone looking to cultivate resilience, improve their mental and physical well-being, and explore the spiritual dimensions of a meaningful life. You'll hear curated insights that address the whole self-mind, body, and spirit-offering practical philosophy for navigating work, relationships, and personal ambition. It’s a deeply rooted alternative to fleeting motivational quotes, providing substantial content that encourages reflection and actionable change. Tune in for a quiet moment of guidance that feels both ancient and immediately relevant.
