“Joseph’s Angel, The Hopes and Fears of All the Years” By The Rev. Dr. Louisa W. Umphres - Third Sunday of Advent

Lakeside Light Podcast

Scriptures: Matthew 1:18-25

“Much like Joseph, people of faith today find ourselves standing at a terrifying intersection between the world we knew and the one in which we actually live. And like Joseph, we are faced with some game-changing decisions. Do we reach backward and cling to tradition, even when it no longer serves us or meets the need of the moment? Or do we hear the timeless words of the holy messengers—do not be afraid—and put all our faith into the world that is still becoming? The new thing that God, even now, might be working in our midst?” #josephsangel #matthew1 #hopesandfears #callingallangels
