## Resource

In this sermon on Jesus’ genealogy, we see that Christianity dares to be historical: the gospel is not built on myth or moral advice from a legendary teacher, but on the claim that God entered real human history in Jesus Christ. We then see that grace runs through broken bloodlines, as God works through ordinary, obscure, and morally messy people to bring about his purposes. Finally, Luke’s genealogy shows that all history leads to Christ: from Adam, through Abraham and David, across generations of forgotten lives, God was patiently guiding history toward its true climax in his Son. Far from being a boring list of names, this genealogy is a witness to the incarnation, the grace of God, and the providence that gives history its meaning. Luke 3:23-38
