Advent Sermon Series: The Story of Christmas

Scripture: Matthew 2: 1-12, 16-18

Sermon: King Herod

Preacher: Rev. Dr. Stephen Heinzel-Nelson

Every good story has certain elements. A striking setting. Compelling characters. A powerful plot. This Advent and Christmas, join us as we hear once again one the most captivating stories ever told. A story set in a small town named Bethlehem, in a cold stable where the animals slept. A story of shepherds, kings, angels, an angry ruler, a young couple, and the God of the universe entering our world as a newborn baby. A story - the story - which altered the course of history.
