Description

Bethlehem wasn’t impressive. The circumstances weren’t grand. And yet, God chose that place—and that moment—to bring peace into the world. In this message, Dr. Mims walks through an ancient prophecy that reminds us how God works through the ordinary to accomplish the eternal, and why the birth of Jesus still matters deeply for our lives today.
