The Priorities Of Jesus And His Family Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jan 7, 2025

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

Jesus From Baby To Boy

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jan 21, 2010

Some people think that Jesus never knew sickness or pain until the cross but that thinking is contrary to scripture. Jesus knows full well what it means to be human.
