     | 250 views

    As if the pregnancies of an elderly woman and an unwed teenager weren’t enough to talk about, the birth of John sparks speech in ways that should encourage us to verbalize things about our faith as well.

    The Priorities Of Jesus And His Family Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jan 7, 2025
     | 308 views

    This passage seems to reveal how Mary, Joseph and Jesus prioritized God’s things in their routines, regards (or affections), and relationships.

    Today, as we continue our study in the book of Luke, we come to a rather peculiar passage that provides a rare glimpse into Jesus’ childhood. The other gospels vary in how much they share about Jesus before his public ministry begins. Matthew devotes about 48 verses to Jesus’ early years (some of ...read more

There is something in us that wants to understand more about where we are from and from whom we descend. Unfortunately, for many of us, the ...read more
