In part two of our Christmas Series, Pastor Seb explores the profound title "Mighty God" from Isaiah 9:6, challenging our understanding of true power and strength. While the ancient Israelites expected a warrior-messiah who would physically defeat their oppressors—someone like David's mighty men who slayed hundreds in battle—Jesus came as a child born in Bethlehem, demonstrating that real power is wrapped in humility. This sermon examines how Jesus showed His might over nature, sickness, death, and sin, yet chose to serve rather than dominate, washing feet instead of wielding swords. Pastor Seb introduces the spiritual discipline of secrecy and issues a compelling Christmas challenge: to do mighty works for God without telling anyone, allowing us to examine our true motivations and become humble heroes in God's kingdom. Perfect for anyone wrestling with what true strength and leadership look like in a world obsessed with recognition and power.
