The Trip to Bethlehem: 4-Part Message Series

In her book, The Trip to Bethlehem, Reverend Hypathia Hasbrouck writes, “The Christmas story is our story. Each year, the traditional Christmas story stirs believers and unbelievers alike, not only because it celebrates the birth of the Christ child—the baby who grew into the man whose life and teachings changed the course of history and shaped the mind and culture of the Western world—but also because it appeals to the very depths of our being. It stirs all of us because the Christ child represents the higher Self, the true Self, of everyone. That child is within us and in our depths, we know that at some time we are destined to take the mystical trip to our inner Bethlehem, the birthplace of our own higher Self.”
