We are often admonished by parents to, “keep the family name,” which is translated, “don’t do anything stupid or illegal.” Some people go through life struggling with the name they were given, like the character in ...read more

    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.

    Luke chapter 2 is very unique - it is the only place where we learn in detail what happened at the birth of Christ - again, evidence that Luke may have gotten the story from Mary herself. It is the only place where we see Jesus presented for circumcision at the Temple, and the only gospel that ...read more
