Matthew and Luke each tell a very different version of Jesus’ birth. This year the lectionaries let us tell each of them in a special way. Here are some visual resources and commentary to help you preach and teach these important stories.
This post offers visual resources for the week of December 18, 2022 in the Revised Common Lectionary and the Narrative Lectionary. It is the fourth Sunday of Advent and we light the candle of Love. It is also the great convergence where the Revised Common Lectionary and the Narrative Lectionary call for the same Gospel text. Matthew 1:18-25 tells the story of Joseph’s dream when a divine messenger tells him to take Mary to be his wife and they should name the child Jesus and call him Immanuel, God is with us.
Christmas is just around the corner and it is time to go back to Luke 1 and 2 and hang out with the shepherds in the field, the heavenly host, and baby Jesus in a manger. This download pack will give you visual resources to tell the familiar story in new ways. Enjoy!
