Mary is discovered to be pregnant while she and Joseph are engaged but not living together. Marriage worked differently in this time period, and engagement was very serious #christmas #advent #marriage #jesus #christian

The 4 women mentioned in Jesus’ genealogy (in addition to Mary) are all a bit scandalous. And they show us that God works through imperfect and messy families to bring about our salvation. And if Jesus’ family isn’t perfect, it’s okay ours isn’t either #family #advent #jesus #christian #faith

The Advent and Christmas seasons can be a hard time for many people as the world is filled with celebration yet we’re experiencing loss or hardship. The good news of Christmas is Christ came to be a light to shine in the midst of all the darkness we experience #christmas #jesus #noahkahan

In Matthew 11, Jesus answers a question about who he is by describing the life he brings. Like Aslan returning to Narnia, Jesus brings life wherever he goes #narnia #jesus #cslewis #christian #life
