The Forgotten Father: Joseph's Costly Obedience

Dec 7, 2025    Tony Stephens

Joseph is one of the most overlooked figures in the Christmas story — but his obedience played a crucial role in God’s plan of salvation. In this Week 2 message of The Invasion, Pastor Tony explores the quiet, costly, courageous faith of a man who never says a word in Scripture… but whose actions speak louder than most.


From the confusion of Mary’s pregnancy,

to the danger of fleeing to Egypt,

to the uncertainty of returning home,

Joseph shows us what faith looks like when God disrupts your plans.


In this message, you’ll discover:

Why obedience begins where understanding ends

How God protects us through detours we didn’t choose

Why costly obedience is often God’s path of protection

How to trust God when He changes the plan again

The power of quiet faithfulness in an unseen world

I

f you’re walking through confusion, facing a costly step of obedience, or wrestling with the direction God is leading you, Joseph’s story will give you hope and strength for the journey.
