Mary and Joseph

In this remarkable new historical novel, best-selling author Robert Marcum focuses his considerable talent on perhaps the most challenging topic of his telling the sweet, complex, and exhilarating story of Mary and Joseph, Jesus' earthly parents and two of the most important people in His mortal life and ministry. Extensively researched, this rich, immersive story presents Mary and Joseph as real people who were prepared by Heavenly Father to raise the Savior as a mortal, a son who was willing and prepared to do His Father's bidding. We learn of the unique challenges in keeping their vital secret, while also trying to fully understand what raising the Messiah really means. As we follow them from Nazareth to Bethlehem, to Egypt and back to Nazareth, we learn to love them for how they responded to this important calling, to the needs of others, to each other, and to God.
