Show Notes

Bible Teacher Dan Slagle examines the Christmas message through the lens of Matthew 2, when Herod orders Bethlehem's baby boys put to death, hoping to kill Jesus. You see, when Jesus arrived, joy and danger collided. Kings were threatened, evil pushed back, and innocent lives were caught in the middle. Yet this is exactly why Christ came—not to avoid darkness, but to confront it. Jesus entered the world as a King at war with sin, death, and everything that destroys life. Christmas is merry not because life is easy, but because the Light has come—and the darkness has not overcome it.
