God has a plan

Key Text: Matthew 1:1-17

Why would the first book in the New Testament start with a whole list of names rather than dive straight into the story of Jesus?  What do these names listed here say about the Christmas Story?  Today we look at Matthew 1 and be encouraged that we can trust a Sovereign God who had a plan in place for the Messiah to come, and He has a plan also for you and I.
