"We do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who in every respect has been tested as we are." (Hebrews 4:15 NRSV)
When we think of Jesus, we usually think of His miracles, His masterful teaching, and His world-changing death and resurrection. But what about the unremarkable moments of Jesus's life? What about Jesus coming home after a long day at work, navigating a family argument, or going to a friend's wedding? With pastoral warmth and fascinating historical details, Ryan Lokkesmoe invites you into the different areas of Jesus's ordinary, everyday humanity:- His childhood and home life
- His work life and finances
- His physical and emotional well-being
- His cultural and political contexts
- His weekly and yearly religious rhythms
