Moody Radio presents
The Hope of Hanukkah: Jesus and the Festival of Lights
Sunday, December 14
7am - 8am Hawaii
It was one of
the darkest periods in Israel's history. Demoralized and under foreign
domination, God suddenly gave the Jews an unlikely victory. What turned the
tide? And how did "Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights" arise from such a
gloomy scene?
Moody Radio takes listeners on location to Israel for a riveting
you-are-there account. Dramatic elements combine with scintillating
interviews and music to paint a memorable picture of the "Festival of
Lights." By the end of the journey, listeners discover that Jesus really is
the hope of Hanukkah. An excellent tool for sharing with Jewish
non-believers.
(This
year Hanukkah runs from sundown December 21st to sundown January 1st.)
"To All People... a Savior"
Sunday, December 14
8am -10am Hawaii
Continuing a tradition dating
back to 1954, Moody's CANDLELIGHT CAROLS portrays the spirit of the
Christmas season through song and pageantry.
Moody Bible Institute’s student music groups, including the Chorale, Men's
Collegiate Choir, Symphonic Band, and Women's Concert Choir and Bell
Ensemble, will perform joyful holiday music and sacred classics, and
illustrate the Savior’s coming through drama. This year's performances
will have an international theme, "To All People… a Savior," and will
feature musical styles and Christmas traditions from a variety of
cultures.

O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM
Moody Radio puts this colorful city on the map in a fresh new way in the special O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM. Hear the wind blowing atop the fortress from which King Herod likely issued his death decree for Bethlehem's baby boys. We'll travel inside the church of the Nativity - the supposed spot where Christ was born, and visit a boisterous Bethlehem marketplace. Rich stereo soundscapes will transport listeners to ancient streets and curious neighborhoods, as we discover Bethlehem life today.
