I am so glad that you are coming along for the journey. Over the next 40 days we will go through the four gospels (that's about 2 or 3 chapters a day. Easy-piecey-lemon-squeezy).
Let's walk with Christ and learn to run in faith.
With this opening book to the New Testament, I can see that God’s plan is alive and evident through all the generations. His plan is specific to involve people in each of those generations.
This 40-day walk with Jesus starts with his genealogy. A genealogy with characters who are noble, and some who’s pasts are questionable. But we find them all the same in the Jesus’ family-line.
Did you know that because of what Christ has done for us, we are now part of His family?
I meet a couple, yet to be married, who suddenly find themselves the parents-to-be of the Messiah. I got to follow wise men travelling from far to give gifts to the new-born King. I meet a king so determined to hold on to his kingdom that he orders genocide.
