21.01.03 “12yr old Jesus” (Luke 2:41-52)

 

Good morning my "Walking with Jesus" friends on this first TUESDAY of 2023.  For many of you this may be your first day back to work in the new year. How quickly will things get back to some normalcy for you post-Christmas? What will be new for you this first week or two of 2023? Yesterday I left you in the Galilee town of Nazareth as Joseph and Mary were raising their family which, as I showed you, grew to be quite a large family, according to Mark 6:3. The only glimpse the Bible gives us into those years of Jesus and His human family in Nazareth is found in Luke 2:41-52: "Every year Joseph and Mary went to Jerusalem for the Passover Festival. When Jesus was 12 years old, they went up to the Passover as was their custom. After the festival was over, while Joseph and Mary were returning home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but they were unaware of it."  (Click here to see full text, images and links)      Today's Scripture is Luke 2:41-52. Choose below to read or listen.​​ Pastor Doug Anderson    262.441.8785   “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, with our eyes fixed on Jesus…” (Heb. 12:1,2) Have a comment or question about today’s chapter? I’m ready to hear from you, contact me here.
