"Jesus’ Birth Certificate: (Place of Birth)" – Micah 5:2, Luke 2:4
Advent Sermon Series Part III
Sermon by the Rev. Elizabeth N.H. Link from Sunday, December 17, 2023. "The birth of the Messiah will be a sign to the world of healing and life. This child was born with a name, born at a time in history, born in a place we know. In Bethlehem, heaven has come down. In Bethlehem, House of Bread, we encounter the Bread of Life.
"Where we come from matters. Where we have been, what we have lived through and experienced shapes who we are. I am, in part, who I am because of where I come from. You can take the boy of out Bethlehem, but you cannot take Bethlehem out of the boy."
