Herod: A Selfish King
Summary
The sermon explores the traditional Nativity scene and questions its often incomplete portrayal of biblical events surrounding Jesus' birth. It highlights the absence of women, medical professionals, and a grand celestial or earthly celebration, despite Jesus being the Son of God. The takeaway is that the humility and understated nature of Jesus' arrival should inspire us to recognize the extraordinary in the ordinary and to participate in celebrating God's intervention in the world.
