UNLIKELY. But Not Impossible.: The Story Behind "O Little Town of Bethlehem"

Yet the Christmas story reminds us that what seems unlikely is never impossible with God.Unlikely, But Not Impossible is a short, sermon-based Christmas booklet drawn from two messages preached in December 2024 at Calvary Baptist Church in Temecula, California.Using lines from the familiar carol "O Little Town of Bethlehem," the book explores five unlikely truths found in the Christmas story: - An unlikely place- An unlikely time- Unlikely people- An unlikely plan- An unlikely resultEach section points to the same central truth: God accomplishes His purposes in ways that often defy human expectation.This booklet is designed for personal reflection, small-group use, or seasonal encouragement. It offers clear biblical teaching, gospel focus, and practical application, reminding readers that the God who worked through Bethlehem is still at work today.
