with intention

beautiful worship this morn. worship focusing on jesus. jesus was the talk afterward. not the show - but the star.
God chose Nazareth as the town for his son to grow up in. a simple place. not even mentioned in the OT. off the beaten path. simple gov. - simple trade - simple relationships. sweet baby james says "steer clear of royal welcomes, avoid the big to-do" in his song "Home By Another Way". God is not out to steal the show on earth. he goes to Nazareth. paradox... mystery. well anyway, it was one of the best messages I've heard on advent.
