Episode 13 — Bethlehem was not chosen because it was impressive or powerful, but because God chose it.

In this episode of Characters of Christmas, we explore how God entered the world through a place that was small and easily overlooked. Long before Jesus was born there, Bethlehem had been shaped by quiet faithfulness—from Ruth’s obedience to David’s anointing—revealing God’s pattern of working through humility rather than grandeur. Bethlehem reminds us that God still comes where He is welcomed, and that ordinary places can become holy ground when Christ is received.
