The visit of an angel and a virgin giving birth in a stable have been romanticized in our holiday crèche scenes. Join us in reflecting on Edward Sri’s Dawn of the Messiah: The Coming of Christ in Scripture to trace the nativity’s roots in the Old Testament and uncover the shocking power of God’s plan to save us.
