“Fr Phil Harris – The 400 Silent Years: Israel Waiting for Messiah”
“In this episode, Peter talks to the Reverend Canon Father Phil Harris about the biblical significance of Christmas. They explore the 400-year intertestamental period known as the “silent years,” the historical and cultural context of Israel awaiting the Messiah, and Old Testament prophecies from Malachi, Isaiah, and Micah that point to Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem. The discussion also touches on the deuterocanonical books, the meaning of peace in Hebrew tradition, and the call to repentance, with references to modern events like a London carol service.
Revd Canon Fr Phil Harris is a Priest in the Anglican Church in North America and serves as Global Ecumenical Officer for the Confessing Anglican Church (CEEC.CHURCH).
Known for his direct, no-nonsense and passionate commentary on current affairs—particularly in Great Britain and the United States—Canon Phil consistently points people to the real life found only in Jesus Christ. Through his much-loved readings of the Psalms, he draws listeners closer to God with clarity and conviction.
A tireless advocate for visible unity in the worldwide Church, he travels extensively, spending significant time building relationships and planting gospel hope in India and Africa.
At home in the West Midlands, he is Rector of the vibrant new church plant St Jude and St James, Rowley Regis, where people from all backgrounds are encountering Christ in life-changing ways.”
