God-With-Us: Call the Midwife 7//7

Global Jesus vs. local powers (a.k.a. Herod). The astrologers “from the East” who pay homage to toddler Jesus are ethnically, geopolitically, and religiously wrong for this story. But they signal to Herod, and to us, that something much bigger is happening in this child. God is staking a claim against Empire, and it feels like a threat. “Don’t you know, we’re talkin’ about a revolution, and it sounds like a whisper” (Tracy Chapman).
