The three wise men saw the star, interpreted it, pursued it, and found and worshipped the baby Jesus. But some other men were less wise.

This year, for Advent, we are taking a little road trip. We are going to go to Nazareth, Jerusalem, Egypt, and Bethlehem. We are particularly interested in what these places add to the story of the birth of Jesus. In this sermon, we visit Jerusalem, the city with so much history and meaning that the birth of Jesus almost had to relate to it. You can see the slides I used as a PDF HERE.
