Fourth Sunday of Advent
Matthew 1:18-25
Joseph had every reason to walk away. Every legal right. Every social justification. But in a dream, he sees another way—a harder way that requires him to trust what he cannot fully understand and to protect what the world will not value.
On this final Sunday of Advent, we'll explore how Joseph's quiet faithfulness models a different kind of strength. Sometimes the most revolutionary act is choosing to stay when everyone expects you to leave, to trust when doubt would be easier, to become light-bearer when it costs you everything.
Additional scripture texts are Isaiah 7:10-16 and Romans 1:1-7.
