Reaching to God - The Christmas Edition

Do you know the event that begins the Christmas story? It happens fifteen months before the birth

of Jesus.

Do you know the person Mary spoke to first about her visit from the angel Gabriel? It wasn't Joseph.

Did you know that Herod sided with Marc Antony

and Cleopatra against Rome in the years before

Jesus was born? Do you know how the Roman Civil Wars affected the birth of our Lord?

Did you know there was a treasure hunt the night

of Christmas? How about the Wise Men? Do you

know why Luke left them out of his Gospel?

The Christmas story is less than four chapters

long in the Bible, and yet many parts aren't

known or are remembered incorrectly.

Acclaimed theologian R.A. Mathews (B.A., M.Div., J.D.) takes the reader through every event in the Christmas story, reaching back into the Old Testament and forward to the Acts of the Apostles to understand those few chapters.

Like all the volumes in the Reaching to God series, these words will lead you in a closer walk with God, guiding and inspiring you for years to come.
