In this final message of the Advent series, we explore Isaiah 7 and God's offer of a sign to King Ahaz—a sign that ultimately points to the birth of Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us. Through a powerful comparison to the "game changer" of the forward pass in football, we're challenged to see how the presence of Christ transforms everything. This sermon calls us to move beyond pious excuses and trust that God's presence still changes the game today.
