We stand today overlooking the ancient fields of Bethlehem — not the later city shaped by churches and stone, but the same rural landscape that existed in the days of David and in the days of Jesus.

As we look across the fields where shepherds once heard the angel’s announcement, we trace the journey from mourning to hope — and from hope to redemption.

This is the story of Bethlehem.
A story of tears transformed into promise.
A place where sorrow gave way to the birth of the Messiah.
