01. Advent #1 - They Shall Call His Name Immanuel - Matt Carvel // Matthew 1:18-25
As we approach Christmas, we're invited to reflect on the profound meaning of the Nativity. Matthew's account reminds us that Jesus' birth wasn't just a sweet story, but a historical event with cosmic implications. The virgin birth, while miraculous, points to something even more extraordinary - God making His home among us. This 'Immanuel' - God with us - fulfils ancient prophecies and reveals God's desire for an intimate relationship with humanity. But Jesus didn't come merely to dwell among us; He came to save us from our sins. This challenges us to confront our brokenness and need for a Saviour.
