The Church of Eleven22

What do you do when God’s plan interrupts everything you thought your life would be? Joseph never asked to be at the center of the greatest story ever told—but when God spoke, he listened. In this powerful message, we see how quiet obedience, godly character, and fearless faith positioned Joseph to play a critical role in God’s redemptive plan. Through the miracle of Jesus’ birth, we’re reminded that Christmas isn’t about fame, comfort, or applause—it’s about faithful surrender to a Savior who came to be God with us. If Joseph trusted God with everything… what is God asking you to trust Him with today? 📣 Episode Mentions: • Scripture Passage: Matthew 1:18-25 • Preacher: Pastor Ryan Britt 📌 Supplemental Resources From This Week: • Mr. Secret Christmas Movie Lover • Joseph - Real Men of Christmas: Wk 1 (Full Service)  •Joseph and the Courage to Obey - Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin S25E1  • Real Men of Christmas Sermon Series Series  • Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin  About The Church of Eleven22 The Church of Eleven22® is a movement for all people to discover and deepen a relationship with Jesus Christ.
