“A.M.A.: What do we know for CERTAIN about Jesus?” by The Reverend Jacquelyn Foxall
Description
In the first installment of our "Ask Me Anything" series, Rev. Jacqui pulls together all the questions you've asked about Jesus: What do we know for certain about him? Did he have siblings? Was he born in Bethlehem in a barn? Was he ever married? Who was his dad - Joseph or God? Unafraid to say the quiet part out loud, Rev. Jacqui tells us everything that we know for certain about Jesus from an archeological historical perspective. But then she turns the conversation on its head because faith isn't built on certainty. The lifelong practice of discipleship, of having the same mind that was in Christ, is one of faith seeking understanding. It's not about verifiable facts. It's about learning, growing, messing up, trying again, and being transformed by the Holy Spirit as we embody the good news Jesus commanded us to share with the world God so loves.
This teaching was preached by the Reverend Jacquelyn Foxall at Knox Presbyterian Church in Oakville, Ontario, Canada on Sunday June 29, 2025 as week 1 of 4 2025 Summer Series “Ask Me Anything”
