Jesus was born in the obscure village of Bethlehem, the child of a peasant woman and carpenter.

He worked as carpenter until He was thirty.

Then for three years Jesus was an itinerant preacher, teaching people to love our Heavenly Father and one another.

While He was still a young man, the ruling authorities and religious leaders came to fear His popularity and His message of the Kingdom of our Heavenly Father.

So Jesus was arrested, tried and convicted of no crime, yet was nailed to a cross to die. While He was dying, His executioners gambled for His only piece of property - the coat that He wore on His back.

When Jesus Christ was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave.

He never had a wife and children, nor owned a home. Jesus never wrote a book, nor held any public office.
