The Gifts Redeemed

Celebrate the Christmas season with this novel which focuses on what may have happened to the three Wise Men and Jesus, Mary and Joseph after the Gospel narratives of the Nativity and the birth of Christ.  The work then dives into what may have occurred duringthe lost years of the youth of Jesus, as well as what may have happened to Joseph to cause him to disappear from the pages of the Gospels after Jesus was age 12.  Entertaining, informative, and thought provoking, this book will provide you with a spiritual boost as you celebrate the Birth of Jesusthis coming holiday season.  The Christmas story and the Gospels themselves are often silent as to major portions of the lives of Jesus, Joseph, Mary, and the three Wise Men after the Magi came to worship baby Jesus. If you ever wondered just who the Wise Men were, and what their personalities were like, where Jesus spent his lost youth and early adulthood during the period of time not covered in the Bible, and what happened to Joseph after Jesus was age 12, this is the book for you.  The work is respectful and reverent in tone, while still answering some of the unknown facts of the Gospels in a fun and historically feasiblemanner. The end of the story demonstrates the Gifts of the Magi redeemed, and how those gifts served as metaphors for the true mission of Jesus as He came to live with us on earth that first Christmas morning.
