Luke 2 teaches us that Jesus purposefully came to those who no one would choose - from a young poor couple to outcast shepherds. Learn also about his ordinary/extraordinary childhood.

It is the only place where we see Jesus presented for circumcision at the Temple, and the only gospel that ...read more
