Matthew 1:18-25

For over 500 years, God’s people cried out under the weight of foreign kings, broken promises, and aching silence. But their greatest enemy wasn’t Rome—it was sin. In this sermon, journey back into the longing of Israel, feel the burden of global bondage, and discover why the birth of Jesus isn’t just a holiday—it’s the arrival of Heaven’s Champion. Come see why God had to become man, why the cradle points to the cross, and why the name Jesus changes everything. This is not just a story of hope for Israel—it’s a rescue for the world.
