"This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit." (Matthew 1:18)

Passage: Matthew 1:18-25

Every Christmas season, many church will put on Christmas pageants that will act out events surrounding Jesus' birth. If those plays only use dialogue that is found in scripture, there will only be two people who will not have a speaking part. The first is baby Jesus, who will be the center focus of the pageant since His birth is the central focus of everything. Everyone else has something to say - the angel Gabriel, Mary, the shepherds, and the wise men.

Joseph may not have a speaking part, but he has a huge impact part. God chose a man with a deep faith and heart for Him to be the earthly father of Jesus. While there is not a lot written in scripture about Joseph, everything that is written shows a man who is great example for any one to follow. Joseph experienced Christmas in his home. You can too.
