Matthew 2:13-23 (Part II)--Divine Detours

In this episode, we explored one of the most dramatic and disturbing parts of the Christmas story—Herod’s violent response to the birth of Jesus. But beyond the chaos, we found something deeper: God’s faithful hand guiding Joseph, Mary, and Jesus through detours, danger, and deliverance.🔹 Key Themes:Detours are not delays—they are divine protection.
