Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Mar 3, 2014

Joseph is too often overlooked in the Christmas story. We must never fail to acknowledge the role he played in the life of Jesus. It wasn't just a coincidence that he was engaged to be married to Mary. He was chosen by God for this special calling...to be the earthly father of Jesus. God in His ...read more
