This sermon is from the first Sunday after Christmas. This year, you might also know it as The Fifth Day of Christmas (that’s “Five Golden Rings” Day) - but in the calendar of the church, it’s the day we remember that very soon after Jesus was born his parents took Him to the temple to “present Him to the Lord.” We’ll meet two wonderful people who had been told by the Holy Spirit to go to the Temple to wait for God’s Son to show up, but we’ll focus on what it means when we realize that Jesus, who is called our Redeemer at Easter time, was Himself redeemed when He was an infant.
