When you strip everything away and focus intently on the baby Jesus of the Bible, you will see what For King & Country describes in their song, “Baby Boy” — you will see a king without a crown, a baby boy without a bed, and unexpected majesty.
Hopefully, at the end of our study, we will respond as the band does with a resounding, “Alleluia, what a King!”
In this week’s episode, I discuss:
- The epic crescendo of the arrival of baby Jesus
- How God had this plan from the beginning
- The fullness of time found in Galatians 4:4-5
- How God began with the end in mind even before He made the world in Ephesians 1:4-5
- How God’s plan is all about relationship
- Jesus was not just a willing participant but was in on the planning John 1:1-5, 14
- Focusing on the details of Jesus revealed in Luke 1 & 2
