Isaiah 9: 1-7
Summary: Isaiah here famously describes Israel (and by extension, the whole world) as a land of deep darkness. As we think about the realities of 2020, it may be a description to which we can relate. The surprise light Isaiah offers is a coming child of unparalleled significance–Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. This Christmas Day we’ll spend a few moments basking in the glory of those titles and the hope they offer in the midst of tremendous darkness.
