Born to a teenage mother and an adopted father, Jesus started his human life in extremely uncertain circumstances. In order to fulfil the economic demands of an oppressive empire, his parents were required to leave their community and travel to Joseph’s ancestral home when his young mother was on the verge of giving birth. As a result, this descendant of kings was born in the lowly squalor of a barn. Narrowly escaping the genocidal attacks of a paranoid dictator, his young family was forced to seek asylum in a foreign country when he was still quite young.
