Admittedly, genealogies and family trees don't make for the most interesting reading.  Or do they?  Upon closer inspection, the stories behind the names of our ancestors are often anything but ordinary.  It's there we meet real people - with dreams, failures and who knows what else!  The introduction of Jesus' ancestor list (genealogy) is no exception.  Here we learn of his place in God's plan, as well as the places of some of his notable forebears.  Join us as we consider the roots of Christmas.
