Matthew 2:1-18 - It's the day after Christmas, and nobody wants to hear about a bunch of babies being murdered by a power-crazed ruler. This story is supposed to be about a star, wise men, and some fuzzy camels. But there it is, in the middle of the Christmas story, King Herod killing baby boys. What can we possibly learn from this story? And how can we still claim God's message of "peace on earth, goodwill to all" when the reality of many people of the world, especially children, is far from peaceful and good?
