The Virgin-Born King You Can Trust - This Is Jesus - Matthew 1:18-25

About this episode

This episode explores the significance of trusting in Jesus as the virgin-born king amidst uncertainty and fear.

Trust often feels risky. We find ourselves fact-checking, double-checking, and looking for a track record - because trust grows where faithfulness is proven. In Matthew 1:18–25, we’re confronted with a scandal: an unmarried young woman found to be pregnant. It’s a moment where trust is tested. Yet in the middle of uncertainty and fear, we see trust and obedience flourish as a promise hundreds of years in the making is fulfilled. The virgin birth isn’t just a miracle story; it’s a sign that God keeps His word. In this episode, we explore what it means to trust this Jesus.
