Sermon Title: "God's Family Secrets"
Scripture: Matthew 2:13-23

Secret #1: Babies Died Because Jesus Was Born

Why?  Because We Don't Know The Full Story
Why?  Because God Has Given Humans Free Will
Why?  Because There Is A Spiritual War
Why?  Because We Don't Know The Future

Secret #2: God Showed Perferential Treatment

But God Runs Toward Tragedies
But In Jesus, God Understands Suffering
But God Still Speaks

Closing:  God Is With Us, God Is For Us,
          And Someday God Will Make All Things Right
                    Hold On To Jesus
