AdoreWeek Four: Day 6In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world.
Luke 2:1
Shortly before Mary gave birth to Jesus she and Joseph embarked on an arduous journey to Bethlehem. There were two pressing reasons why they travelled so late in the pregnancy. The first was that everyone was required by Roman decree to register for the census. The second, and more important, reason took place 700 years before the birth of Jesus, when the Old Testament prophet Micah foretold that Jesus would be born in the...2022-12-2302 minAdoreWeek Four: Day 5This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit.

Luke 1:45
It is hard to imagine the range of emotions Mary would have experienced during her pregnancy. On one hand, she surely felt great joy as Jesus grew inside her. On the other hand, she likely felt fearful because under Jewish law at that time a woman who became pregnant outside of marriage could be stoned to death.
God did not leave her to face this dire situation alone. The angel Gabriel told her, “Even El...2022-12-2103 minAdoreWeek Four: Day 3...

The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God.

Luke 1:26b-27
First century Jewish marriages were most often arranged by parents when girls were between 12-14 years old and young men between 18-20 years old.

How do you imagine the scene unfolded? Did shepherds tell everyone by shouting in the streets and waking up the sleeping town?

However the shepherds shared the news, those that heard were amazed.

Many early shepherds are important figures in the Bible, but only one - David - became a king. Many generations later, Jesus would be born through the line of King David, the former shepherd.

The Salem City Club's PodcastA Deep Dive into the Willamette River with Travis Williams, Exec Director of Willamette RiverkeepersThe Willamette River defines the place we call home in so many ways. It carves our valley, nourishes all forms of life, supports industry, provides for recreation, and inspires us. It’s easy to enjoy its benefits without appreciating how our actions impact the river, below its surface, on its surface, and around its edges.
