We continue our Advent conversations with the story of Joseph's response to Mary's conception of Jesus, as recorded in Matthew 1:18-25. We compare and contrast Joseph's response to Mary's -- i.e., Joseph's silence, compared to Mary breaking out in a song. We also talk about all the names of Jesus--Immanuel, Christ, Messiah, Ye'shua--that our texts gives us.
