The Family of Jesus Christ

An examination of The Family of Jesus Christ gives Christians deeper insight into the human side of the Savior.

The book begins with the unusual histories of the four women included in Matthew's ancestral lineup, some of whom were not of Jewish background, all of whom had less than perfect pasts. Author James Byers then walks the reader through the story of Jesus' earthly mother, father, brothers, and cousins. Their lives, as each comes to see His real purpose, are reflective of Christ's message and manner. A common man, yet the most uncommon of any man, Jesus lived humbly among sinners with a message of love and repentance. This is the story of those who called Him both their relative and Redeemer.
