The Unexpected Hope

December 3, 2023 • Jason Turner, Pastor Nathan Batres • Micah 5:2–6

We often gravitate to Christmas movies that present a situation which appears hopeless and in which the main character feels helpless. In those low points, a Christmas miracle usually occurs.


Just as scriptwriters have authored the miraculous turnarounds in Christmas movies, the Author of human history wrote an amazing reversal of fortune into the script of humanity. Micah was given the words to share this message of hope, and it came during a particularly low point in Israel’s history.


In this session, Jason Turner, pastor of Mississippi Boulevard Church in Memphis, TN, explores the hope of Advent proclaimed to Israel hundreds of years before the Messiah’s arrival. That hope can be embraced by us, reminding us that no situation is too bleak when God is at work.
