I actually found my answer on another forum. Here is a link to the solution: Articles from multiple categories showing on homepage

If you set the Category Sort Order=No Order, the articles will be sorted in the Article Sort Order regardless of which category it belongs to. i.e you will have your most recent articles first.

 

If set to a Category Sort Order, all articles in the category that are sorted first will be shown before the next category.

 

As the Order is set to use Global, you have to enter the Global Settings (Options Button in Article Manager) to see what is set. "
