Mary
In this sermon, Pastor Mike explores the Annunciation - the moment when the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary announcing she would give birth to Jesus. Through examining how the original readers would have understood Luke's account, we discover profound insights about God's nature and what true surrender looks like.
From Series: "Patience in the Promise"
This Advent season, join us for “Patience in the Promise,” a series that traces God’s faithfulness through four powerful stories of waiting and fulfillment. Beginning with Abraham and Sarah’s journey of trusting God’s seemingly impossible promise, we’ll move through Joseph’s testimony of God’s faithfulness amid suffering, then explore Mary’s extraordinary role in God’s unfolding plan. Finally, we’ll conclude with Simeon and Anna, whose story reminds us that while Advent is traditionally a season of waiting, we now celebrate from the other side of fulfillment – the promised Messiah has come.
