The Early Years of Jesus' Life

The Bible does not record much of what happened in the early years of Jesus’ life. Because of this, many have attempted to fill in the gaps between His birth and His baptism by John. Although the Gospels do not record much in terms of the amount of biblical data, what it is recorded speaks volumes about the vocation and mission of Jesus. In this message, Dr. Sproul discusses this as he visits with Mary and Joseph at the Temple, looking at “The Early Years of Jesus’ Life.”
