    based on 5 ratings
     | 2,145 views

    Who really cares about us? Not this world’s Herods, for fear lashes out destructively. We find care in those who, like the wise men, believe in us and give gifts for the future; and who, like Joseph, sacrifice for us. Epiphany at National Baptist Memor

    This jarring episode is just as much a part of the Christmas season as the manger scene. Though grim, the fate of the Innocents shows us how and why we share the hope they had in Christ’s second advent

    10/11ths of Jesus’ earthly sojourn was spent in obscurity in Nazareth. What do we learn from this?

    This series looks at the 5 stories after Jesus was born and the one thing whic unites all of them: their search for the Christ. Today’s scripture is disturbing at best. It is not a story we sing about, or is on the cover of Christmas cards. Most of us wo
