Our first thought when we hear the word "Advent" is about Christmas, and justly so. God has come to earth. Micah writes of Advent and acknowledges Bethlehem, but he looks further. The prophet speaks of Jesus' second advent and the righteousness of His earthly rule. Listen as Dr. John unpacks the plans of the Lord begun in Bethlehem, but much more is still to come. Micah's Message of Hope: The shadows of our time are not unique. We're not the only generation knowing dark days. Micah preached to Israel when their enemies advanced. The seven chapters of Micah proclaim the justice of God and the hope of His people. In this 5-message series Dr. John Neufeld focuses those themes upon Bethlehem. Micah points to the birth of the Messiah as God's rescue and righteousness; vital truths for our day.
