Sermon - Mike Johnson | Psalms 54

Sermon - Mike Gatliff | Matthew 1 & 2 and Luke 2

The Man God Chose: Lessons from Joseph | Father’s Day Message What kind of man would God choose to raise His only Son? In this Father’s Day message, we take a closer look at Joseph—the often-overlooked earthly father of Jesus. Through the Gospel of Matthew, we discover a man marked by righteousness, faithfulness, courage, and quiet obedience. When faced with public humiliation, difficult decisions, and unexpected responsibilities, Joseph consistently chose trust over fear and faithfulness over reputation. Exploring Joseph’s story alongside the examples of Moses and Hosea, this sermon highlights how a life of daily obedience prepares us for God’s greater purposes. Joseph’s willingness to protect Mary and Jesus reminds us that God often works through ordinary people who faithfully respond to His call. This message challenges us to consider our own role in God’s plan: Will we choose to be protectors rather than predators? Will we remain faithful when obedience costs us something? And will we trust that our everyday faithfulness has eternal significance, even when no one else sees it? Join us as we learn from the man God chose to raise His Son and discover how God still uses ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary purposes.

Through honest storytelling, biblical insight, and heartfelt encouragement, this message explores what it truly means to rest in God—even in seasons of uncertainty, suffering, insomnia, broken relationships, spiritual wandering, or emotional fatigue.

I lack nothing.” Listen in and be reminded that your Shepherd knows your needs, speaks with tenderness, and is faithfully leading you home.
