This will be the first sermon in a series of Christ’s ministry leading up to Easter.

We use passages from Isaiah during Advent that describe the birth of the Messiah. We sometimes to to Isaiah 53 during the week of Christ’s Passion. But Isaiah (as well as other Old Testaments prophets) describes more than these events at the beginning and end of the Messiah’s life. We are given details of his character and nature of his ministry.
