Do you know that feeling when good news, a new job, the news of a baby on the way, stirs up excitement and fear at the same time? That is exactly what Mary experienced when the angel announced she would give birth to the Savior (Luke 1): being honored above all generations was woven together with the risk of misunderstanding and rejection. This sermon takes us to Mary’s meeting with Elizabeth and to the prayer of praise in which an ordinary girl from Nazareth discovers that her life has become part of God’s great story. Listen and see what upheaval, and what gratitude, good news from God can bring into your life.
