Overview

Genealogies are boring to us. As modern readers, our eyes start to glaze over and we ask, “When will we get to some action?”

But not only was the genealogy of Jesus incredibly interesting to ancient people, but it will be to us too, if we think about its multiple meanings. We don’t understand the significance of it, but the ancient people did.

We learn three things about Christmas from this genealogy. At Christmas, 1) promise came true, 2) grace changed all categories, and 3) reality became fact.

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.
