Why was Jesus born in a manger?

It wasn’t by accident—God chose the lowly manger for a reason. It symbolizes humility, showing us that Jesus, the King of Kings, didn’t come to seek power or wealth but to serve and save.

The manger reminds us that God meets us right where we are, no matter how lowly or broken. Philippians 2:7 says, 'He made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant.'

This simple beginning points to the incredible truth of the gospel—Jesus came for everyone, from the least to the greatest."
