Merry Christmas! In this message, we look at what Joseph had to go through with the announcement of Mary's pregnancy. He loved her and didn't want her to die for what looked like unfaithfulness, but he didn't want to marry her either. This message deals with Joseph's shame, and through it all we see God with him, and God with us.

Message from December 8
This message is part of our "Beating the Christmas Blues" series. The birth of Jesus was for Mary a mixture of joy and sorrow, and an old prophet told her that a sword would pierce her heart. What was that sword? What about parents today whose children are on a path that might bring sorrow?

Message from December 1 2013
Sometimes the Christmas season isn't as joyful as we wish it were. This series explores how the birth of Jesus brought a combination of joy and sorrow to those who were around, like the shepherds who didn't realize what the Saviour meant to their jobs.
