Immanuel
“Immanuel” is a word we hear a lot at Christmas, so let’s give it a different look. Kirk and Jenn discuss the simplicity of the name Immanuel–even pulling in a Steve Martin movie reference–to help us see what the angel might have meant when he gave Joseph a heads-up on who he would be fathering.
To Consider
- If Immanuel means, “God is with us,” how should that influence our perspective in challenging circumstances?
- What are Biblical examples of Jesus embodying the idea of Immanuel, in the lives of every day people?
- How has the idea that God is both with and for you, encouraged or challenged you?
