Fleeing for Safety
by Rev. Eric H. Carswell
Type of Event: Worship Service: Informal Family
Date Recorded: 5 Jan, 2020
Location: Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall
Topics: Christmas 
The Gospel of Matthew’s Christmas story has the dark element of Herod’s murderous rage against the newborn Christ. It was essential that Joseph, Mary and Jesus leave Bethlehem right after Joseph’s dream to find safety in far away Egypt. For each of us there is a similar flight when we recognize an evil thought or motivation in our mind. By doing so we protect the fragile life of heaven that the Lord is bringing to each of us.
