Christmas is often painted as peaceful and predictable, but the true story of Jesus is filled with disruption, urgency, and unexpected turns. In this message from the Why So Merry? series, we step into Matthew 2 and the overlooked tension of the Christmas story, where Joseph is forced to uproot his family overnight to protect the very Messiah he was entrusted with. Through Joseph’s immediate obedience and willingness to follow God into unfamiliar territory, we see a powerful picture of how God often works through unexpected change rather than around it. Loss, transitions, new callings, and sudden shifts are not interruptions to God’s plan, they are often the pathway through which He leads us.
