In this episode of the Village Church podcast, Pastor Susan steps into the rhythm of Advent’s unfolding story, bringing us to the third week. Here, she invites us into Matthew's telling of Joseph’s journey, one so profoundly tied to Jesus. Joseph, a man faced with fear and uncertainty, stands at the crossroads of human frailty and divine calling.

Pastor Susan reflects on Joseph's response—a life shaped by obedience and trust. When fear rose, Joseph acted. When anxiety stirred, he listened. He took Jesus and Mary to Egypt, fleeing into the unknown, and then returned when God spoke again. His actions, though swift, were marked by a deep responsiveness to God's voice.

Through this lens, Susan doesn’t merely tell Joseph’s story but calls us to consider our own fears, our own anxieties. How do we respond when God speaks, even when the way forward feels uncertain? This episode gently but firmly challenges us to follow Joseph’s example: to trust, to obey, and to take the next step, no matter how small or daunting it may seem.

The Village Church’s sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God’s work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God’s kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose.

Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.
