Episode 62 – Jesus Emmanuel

Of all the names that could have been given to the Son of God, Matthew’s gospel tells us his name will be Jesus Emmanuel, which means the God who saves is with us. But it’s more than a name, it is also a promise that in whatever chaos we find ourselves inhabiting – like the chaos Joseph found himself a part of when Mary, his betrothed, was found to be with child — the birth of Jesus Emmanuel reminds us the God who saves is with us, too! In today’s message, Amy reminds us that this is the promise that allows us to take courage, step forward, and love!

Romans 1:1-7 and Matthew 1:18-25
