Jesus the one and only: a misfit among misfits

Jesus the one and only:  a misfit among misfits by ric Gustafson


There are a lot of no names in Jesus's genealogy. There were women in the genealogy. There were five women. This set the tone for justice and equality. Tamar, Rahab and Bathsheba were black sheep in the line. No matter the bad things that they had done, they were included in Jesus's family tree. No one is beyond God's grace.
Jesus's family tree was full of misfits. Jesus refused to fit the mold people had fashioned for him. People called Jesus a misfit. God can work through misfits and use them for his glory.
