Embracing Immanuel (God With Us) #3 “The Joy of the Lord” Luke 2:4-12

The season of Christmas can mean many things to many people, but at its core, the message of Christmas is truly “God is with us”. The Prophet Isaiah foretold of a day when a virgin would give birth, and that child would be called “Immanuel”-Hebrew for “God with us” (Isaiah 7:14). Abiding in “God with us” is the recipe for joy in the midst of adversity. Each of us are invited to receive this gift.
