The Little Town of Bethlehem | The Birthplace of Hope for the World: The Little Town of Bethlehem

Pulling from both the Old and New Testament, Dr. Michael Youssef reveals why the Almighty God chose the humble town of Bethlehem—Bethlehem Ephrathah—as the birthplace of His Son. More than 700 years before Christ’s birth, the prophet Micah foretold the exact location, declaring that the Ruler of Israel would come forth “for Me”—God Himself (Micah 5:2). Dr. Youssef proclaims with authority that this was no accident. God bypassed the power of Rome, the intellect of Athens, and the religion of Jerusalem to send a clear message: the hope of the world is not found in human wisdom, government, or religion—it is found in Jesus Christ alone. Through Scriptural truths and historical context, Dr. Youssef calls every listener to humble themselves, repent, and receive the only Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ—because one day, every knee will bow before Him.
