Unlikely: But Not Impossible explores the Christmas story through the lens of God’s surprising grace. From Bethlehem’s obscurity to Mary’s humble faith, Ryan Rench shows that God consistently chooses unlikely places, times, and people to fulfill His perfect plan. Each section corresponds with themes from the carol “O Little Town of Bethlehem,” revealing how God still works miracles in ordinary lives today. Hope-filled and devotional in tone, this booklet encourages believers that “unlikely” never means “impossible” when God is at work.
