The Innkeeper

By Dr. Gerald Robison

Book Overview

The Innkeeper is probably the 2nd most hated person in the original story of Jesus' birth. He had no room in his inn for Joseph, Mary and the coming baby. ..and maybe no room in his heart either.

But what if that wasn't all there was to the story? What if there was another perspective - something that was "behind the scenes"? iThe Innkeeper is another look at the original Christmas story, but this time it's told from the Innkeeper's Perspective.

What if the Bethlehem site of Jesus' birth was linked to the story of Jacob and Rachel in the early chapters of Genesis?

What if there was more than one type of shepherd in Bethlehem... one that had a deep connection to the "Lamb slain from the foundation of the world?" And what if the manger scene wasn't at all like what we imagine, but was well-known to those shepherds?

And, what if Joseph & Mary didn't immediately go back home? Where was Joseph's carpentry shop set up? What if there was both, and enduring and endearing relationship between Jesus growing up and the old Innkeeper in that story?

These are the things that "might have been" and yet, things you were not told concerning the birth of Jesus. With greater insight into the Bible's story, you'll go on a Christmas journey and learn more about this incredible event we all celebrate at Christmas.

Staying true to the scriptures but expanding your knowledge and insight about the Bible and endearing your heart to the Christmas story - well, that's what The Innkeeper is all about.
