Honoring Joseph

Contributed by Davon Huss on Dec 20, 2022

What kind of a man was Joseph? (Material adapted from Leslie Flynn's book, "Christmas Messages", in the chapter called, "The Forgotten Father")

HoHum: There is a forgotten man at Christmas. Poetry, paintings and stories of the nativity treat him minimally, if at all. Few sermons are preached on him. Why is he neglected? Perhaps his silence contributes to his downgrading. Not a single word he speaks is recorded in the gospel story. ...read more
