Have you ever considered the danger Jesus faced as a child? Right from His birth, Jesus was thrust into conflict, fleeing threats that came from the powerful King Herod. In this episode, Stephen Davey walks us through the harrowing events that marked Jesus' early years—days filled with tension, escape, and the unfolding of God's plan. You'll hear how wise men from the East brought gifts fit for a King, yet unknowingly set off a chain of events that turned Jesus into Israel's most wanted.

Mary and Joseph had to flee in the dead of night, taking Jesus on a journey to Egypt that would fulfill ancient prophecies and protect Him from Herod’s murderous intent. This episode helps you understand how even the early life of Jesus points to the sacrifice He came to make. God used every hardship, every moment of fear, and every decision Joseph and Mary made to fulfill His ultimate plan of salvation.

If you've ever struggled with the idea that the Christian journey should be easy, this episode will challenge that view and encourage you to see that God's will can involve sacrifice, hardship, and trust—just like it did for the family of Jesus. Tune in to uncover how the King of Kings became the ultimate deliverer.
