Still Waters Run Deep // Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 2:17-40 // Dr. Stephen G. Tan

We often notice the noise of the Christmas story, the angels, the songs, the celebrations. But Scripture also points us to quieter lives marked by obedience, reflection, and long, hopeful waiting. This message looks at Joseph, Mary, Simeon, and Anna, and how God shapes deep character in hidden places. It’s a reminder that depth is formed not by being seen, but by trusting God enough to obey, slow down, and wait with hope.
