The themes of Christmas, if grasped, are life-transforming.
We’re looking at the book of Isaiah, at the prophesies of the messiah. Because Christians believe the messianic king that Isaiah prophesied was Jesus, we believe these prophecies help us understand the richness of the meaning of Christmas and who Jesus is.
Isaiah 11 tells us three things about this great prophesied king: 1) the justice of the king, 2) the wisdom of the king, and 3) the identity of the king.

The meaning of Christmas can often be hidden, covered by the decorations, gift exchanges and seasonal parties that happen at this time every year. In this book, Tim Keller examines the hard edges of the biblical story of Christ’s birth and what it means for us today.
