The birth of Jesus was the moment when God the Creator entered into His creation, but the circumstances didn’t make sense…and that’s what makes it so amazing! His family tree was as crooked as they come. His parents were teenage peasants. His first bed was a feeding trough for livestock. His first visitor were the very least in society, not even permitted to participate in Temple worship. Nothing about the Christmas narrative was fitting for the birth of a King, and maybe that was the point of it all.
