The Wonder of Christmas, A Season of Wonder, Through the Eyes of Herod, January 19, 2025, Sermon Audio, Pastor Anthony Gerber

When Herod heard about the child born "King of the Jews," he feared that this child would be a threat to his comfort, power, and riches, so Herod sought to have Jesus killed. Where do I fear that following Jesus would be a threat to my comfort, power, and riches? Is there a sin in my life that I'm comfortable with? Let us lay our sins at His feet, hearing His words of forgiveness.
