Immanuel means God with us. Yep, got it. But... why did we need God with us?
In this first episode in our mini series this week, we tackle briefly, what Immanuel meant for the Jews during Jesus time, what it means for us, and how we can respond this season, because God's Presence with us is for real for real, by faith in the person of Jesus Christ. The verses covered in this episode are Matthew 1:22-23 in the ESV translation.
1. What need did Immanuel meet?
2. Why is that so crazy?
3. Our Immanuel (He came once, He gon' come again son!)
4. How the people (shepherds, Mary, and angels, it was lit fam) during that time responded, take notes kids, we should too!!!
