In Day 2 of our new mini-series, Christmas Perspectives, Maisie and her grandfather are watching people at their church build a nativity scene. This gets them started on a conversation about Jesus’ ancestors. They talk about Abraham and the promise God made to bless all nations through his descendants. They talk about Ruth, and David, and Zerubbabel, and others. They conclude that Jesus' family tree shows us that God can use all kinds of people. It doesn't matter where they came from, or what their past was. And, as we celebrate Christmas, and look at the nativity scene, we remember that Jesus' birth brought hope and love to the whole world.
