The Christmas story is beautiful. And yet, when you look under the hood a bit more, it also is full of elements, people, situations, locations and circumstances marked with disgrace. Maybe we can relate. Maybe we’ve felt - or feel - disgraced in life. We’ll learn the elements of disgrace that are present in the Christmas story and how God chooses to meet us in our disgrace. How?
