In this message from our Saints Like Us series, Pastor Chase Wagner teaches from the life of Mary, the mother of Jesus—a young woman chosen, favored, and entrusted with the most significant promise ever given. Though her calling was unexpected and beyond understanding, Mary’s life reminds us that the promises of God are yes and amen, and nothing can stop them from being fulfilled.

Through Mary’s example, we learn that God’s promises begin with our surrender—she said "yes" before she had all the answers. She believed beyond what made sense, trusting God’s word over her own understanding. And she didn’t just carry a promise; she carried the very presence of God—power that transformed every place she entered.

Mary’s story is more than a Christmas narrative—it’s a model of faith for every believer. Like Mary, you are called to surrender, believe, and carry something powerful: the presence and purpose of God in your life.
