Overview

What little we learn about Joseph tells us he’s a pretty admirable guy.

On one hand, he’s faithful to the law of God, but on the other hand, he’s not self-righteous or punitive. He doesn’t want to expose Mary, so he plans to break their engagement quietly. But then he gets a revelation in a dream from the angel of the Lord.

We learn three things from the revelation itself: 1) the importance of the person of Jesus, 2) the importance of the doctrine of Jesus, and 3) the importance of the authority of Jesus.

Discover the deeper message in the parable of the Prodigal Son

In The Prodigal God, Tim Keller examines the way Jesus presents the parable to speak both to those who run from God and to those who try to earn his love by being good. It reveals the heart of the gospel—a message of hope for both the rebellious younger brother and the judgmental older brother, and an invitation for all to experience God’s grace.
