Bethlehem’s Honor: God’s Kingly Village (Micah 5:2) | Pastor Mike Fabarez
Jesus was deliberately born in Bethlehem; a place despised, obscure, and associated with tragedy; to teach us that God's values are the opposite of the world's, so that what we truly long for is found only in Christ and his coming kingdom, not in worldly comfort, respectability, or security.
