Why would kings tremble before a baby? In this Christmas-season sermon, Rev. David Buchs reflects on King Herod’s fear of the Christ Child and what it reveals about power, idolatry, and the kind of King Jesus truly is. What the world sees as weakness and loss, God transforms into victory, life, and redemption.
