Because of Bethlehem: Love is Born, Hope is Here
by Max Lucado
Tuesdays | November 26 - December 17 | 7:00-8:15 PM | Online via Zoom
During our time together, bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado will guide us through the Advent season to its source at an unassuming stable in Bethlehem...
No one expected the Messiah to come the way he did. Yet the way he came was every bit as important as the coming itself. The manger is the message. Because of Bethlehem, God knows what it's like to be human. Because of Bethlehem, when we talk to him about tough times, he understands. He's been there. He's been here. Because of Bethlehem, we no longer have marks on our record...just grace.
This 4-week online study will be facilitated by Becky Marchiando using video and other resources from Because of Bethlehem Bible Study Guide: Love is Born, Hope is Here. Links to purchase study guide (recommended) and book (optional) below. Please register below so that we may send you Zoom credentials required to participate. Come join us as we experience Advent in a new way!
