Stone Manger - The Untold Story of the First Christmas
If you love Christmas, you're really going to enjoy reading Stone Manger - The Untold Story of the First Christmas. You'll take a trip back in time, before the Christmas traditions we have today even existed - back in time to Nazareth and Jerusalem and Bethlehem at the time Joseph and Mary actually lived, to experience the story of the birth of Jesus. And you'll learn the equally fascinating and broader story behind the birth of Jesus. You'll get to know two of the most remarkable people in history, Joseph and Mary of Nazareth, a young couple whose determination and self reliance in the face of challenges was magnified by their faith and reliance upon God in bringing to pass the greatest miracle in our history. But this is no fictional treatment, its not a novel or a screenplay - it's actually biographical. It's the real story of Joseph, Mary, and the birth of Jesus, told by an archaeologist and historian who has researched, excavated, and taught in the Land of Israel for over three decades. Join author Jeffrey R. Chadwick, professor of archaeology and religious studies, as he introduces Joseph and Mary and their remarkable journey to Bethlehem in a way you've never experienced the story before. You'll learn a hundred things about the first Christmas you never imagined. Did you know, for example, that the manger in which the baby Jesus was laid was actually made of stone? That archaeological artifact, the stone manger, will be the starting point for a reading adventure into the authentic story of Christmas that will surprise and delight at every turn. You'll never feel the same about Christmas after reading Stone Manger!
