The Christmas story, as narrated in the Bible, teaches us that following Jesus is risky business. If we are not able to deal with our fears and step-out in courageous faith, then we will never experience the fullness of God's joy. In this message, Pastor Mark uses the story of Joseph to illustrate this point. While there is something for everyone in this message, it will especially connect with step-parents, foster-parents, and adoptive parents.
