Advent Meditations:
Isaiah 9:6 predicts the coming Messiah some 700 years before the birth of Christ, presenting him through four unique names: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. Nearly everyone has heard these names as a powerful part of Handel's "Messiah," but here I reflect on their theological and personal meaning for Christ followers.

Someone else preached the fourth installment in this 2006 series, but I offer here three Advent meditations on the first three names, set in an overview of the passage. Only the print versions are available at this time. Messages include Internet links to music used in one way or another in the original sermons.
