Send us a text

"Today, we are going to share what we affectionately call 'CHRISTMAS JOE'. This is a recent performance from our 2025 tour. Merry Christmas Y'All!"

We share Joseph’s first-person journey from shock to trust on the night the shepherds arrive, weaving Isaiah, Micah, Ruth, and Boaz into the birth that fulfills ancient hope. A carpenter’s resolve turns from fixing problems to carrying promise as prophecy meets a manger.

• the shepherds’ announcement and angelic chorus
• Joseph’s plan to divorce and the dream’s command
• Isaiah’s sign of the virgin and Emmanuel
• Mary’s visit to Elizabeth and the Magnificat
• Zechariah’s silence, Gabriel’s message, and John’s calling
• journey to Bethlehem and Davidic lineage
• Ruth and Boaz as the pattern of redemption
• no room in the houses and the stable birth
• Micah’s promise of a ruler from Bethlehem
• the names of the child and Joseph’s calling
