No Little People

Sam DeSocio | 12/7/25 | Luke 1:46-56

What if feeling small isn’t your problem, but your invitation? In this Advent sermon from Good News Church in the mid‑Atlantic, we sit with Mary’s song in Luke 1 – the Magnificat – and discover a God who **brings down the self‑important** and **lifts up those who feel overlooked**. We live in a world obsessed with being “the biggest”: the largest stadiums, the most followers, the most impressive résumé. But Mary sings about a different kind of greatness. She magnifies the Lord, not herself, and trusts that the God who fills the hungry and remembers the forgotten has not lost sight of her. If you’ve ever wondered: - “Do I matter if I’m not successful, impressive, or noticed?” - “Has God forgotten me in this long silence?” - “How do I follow Jesus without crushing myself with false humility?” …this sermon is for you.
