Childhood of Jesus
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In "Childhood of Jesus," Steve Gregg delves into the little-known aspects of Jesus' early life. He discusses how Jesus' family fled to Egypt to escape the wrath of King Herod, and may have supported themselves with gifts from the wise men. Gregg also makes connections between the history of Israel and the personal history of Jesus, pointing out the parallels between the two. He touches on the idea of sin nature and how it varies among different Christian denominations. Finally, Gregg notes how Jesus' time as a carpenter dignifies secular work and shows the importance of patiently waiting for God's direction in one's life.
