Jesus was born into a Jewish family and Jewish religious context in ancient Israel. Today, he would be called a Sabra...all things being equal, the Christmas story of the birth of Messiah in Bethlehem is the story of a beautiful, young Jewish woman giving birth to her son. Part I covers the foundations of faith, while Part II is about walking by faith through good times and the valley of suffering, moral virtues, and belieiving in that ancient hope: boy meets girl, love, and family. Pete Kovacs, B.A., B.Ed., M.Div. was raised in the suburbs of Scarborough, Ontario, Canada, but Israel, the Land and her people, is deep in his heart and soul. In his own words, The Land of Israel is the Land of the King. Suggested Retail Price: $17.95
