Advent 2024 | When The King Comes | Where Can I Find Joy In Life? (Andrew Allison)

Micah 5:1-5a - When the Wisemen arrived in Jerusalem looking for the 'King of the Jews', the scholars read our Micah passage and told them to go to Bethlehem. Bethlehem was the place of the king's birth. That prophecy had been given 700 years before Mary and Joseph trundled into sleepy Bethlehem. All of this: Micah's prophecy, the difficulty of his time in history, translates into joy for us and potential joy for all the generations of the earth.
