Victory in Hopelessness - Dec 24 - Christmas Eve

It's easy to read the beautiful, traditional story of Jesus' birth and forget how broken the entire situation is for its original participants - personally, politically, and socially. But the incarnation of God in the infant Jesus brings hope and victory to each one of those situations, and our own life situations today.
