Episode 15: Jesus, Emmanuel

Words matter because words have meaning.  When the "Word became flesh and dwelt among us," we can take time to remember that the Son of God has many names.  Jesus.  Messiah.  Alpha and Omega.  One of the names we often think about is the name, Emmanuel, which means,  "God with us."  What might God be telling us in this name?  It's like God is saying, “I want to be with you.” Isn't it true we spend time with people we love?  We were also created for love-relationship with God.  Today, Al and Paul return to the  metaphor of the “Grace Highway," as they seek to help the believer enjoy being with God as we simultaneously travel the two lanes of heart-relationship and the Christian disciplines that posture us to know and enjoy fellowship with God.

Matthew 1:23
