Bethlehem - The Birthplace of Salvation: (1 of 7) Along the Road
"Jesus was born in Bethlehem, a village in which the Lord frequently delivered solutions for people in trouble. Matthew and Luke reference this village nine times in telling the story of Jesus’s birth, highlighting that it too is a solution story. ABOUT THE SERIES While walking the roads of the Holy Land, Jesus often taught His followers lessons that would come down to us through God’s Word. But from our perspective—in our very different time and place—many of the Lord’s allusions to the surrounding landscape have been lost. In this seven-episode series, Dr. John (Jack) Beck highlights how the land provided talking points both to the original disciples and to us today. Enhance your own spiritual journey with this series.
