Small Beginnings 2: Bethlehem

As we enter into the season of Advent, the weeks leading up to Christmas, we’ll celebrate God-sized works that begin small and humble.

Micah 5:2 (NLT)  [Written around 700 B.C.] But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, are only a small village among all the people of Judah. Yet a ruler of Israel will come from you, one whose origins are from the distant past. 

Luke 2:4-6 (NLT) 4  And because Joseph was a descendant of King David, he had to go to Bethlehem in Judea, David’s ancient home. He traveled there from the village of Nazareth in Galilee. 5  He took with him Mary, his fiancée, who was now obviously pregnant. 6  And while they were there, the time came for her baby to be born.
