It Started In A Stable

Dec 20, 2020    Pastor Mike Maiolo    Matthew 1:18-25

Christmas is the best time of year but it’s also loaded with expectations, isn’t it? Christmas shopping, decorating, giving to others, spending family time, entertaining, chestnuts roasting on an open fire. It’s as if there’s "magic in the air." But what do we do when our expectation of what Christmas should be like does not match up to reality? It could be just like the context of Jesus' birth, and being born into a chaotic world, your struggles now are also a set up for tomorrow's victory.
