When you strip everything away and focus intently on the baby Jesus of the Bible, you will see what For King & Country describes in their song, "Baby Boy" -- you will see a king without a crown, a baby boy without a bed, and unexpected majesty.

Hopefully, at the end of our study, we will respond as the band does with a resounding, "Alleluia, what a King!"

In this week's episode, I discuss:

  • The epic crescendo of the arrival of baby Jesus
  • How God had this plan from the beginning
  • The fullness of time found in Galatians 4:4-5
  • How God began with the end in mind even before He made the world in Ephesians 1:4-5
  • God's plan is all about relationship
  • Jesus was not just a willing participant but was in on the planning John 1:1-5, 14
  • Focusing on the details of Jesus revealed in Luke 1 & 2
