Hey y'all! This is a bonus episode because we have gotten so much positive feedback on the first three scriptures, over the first three days, that we read this Advent season. The scriptures are from the Matthew 1:-1-17. Folks have been asking if we could edit all three days together, to hear the full 42 generations of Jesus’ genealogy as a whole- with each person being voiced by a unique voice. Fun side note, many of the people voice their namesake, or are Father/Son and Mother/Son pairs in real life as well! Here are the voices who made the Genealogy of Jesus come to life in its entirety through Matthew 1:-1-17 in the New International Version:
- Abraham- Tanner Isaac
- Isaac- Dr. Jeffrey Barbeau

Thank you to each person who voiced Jesus’ ancestors! On a related note, if you would like to hear another version of this, please check out Andrew Peterson’s album “Behold the Lamb of God.” The album tells the entire salvation narrative of God, through the lens of the season of Advent. We couldn’t recommend it more highly- it is an amazing album and will become one of your favorites! And on that album he has a song called “Matthew’s Begats” which he sings the entire Genealogy of Jesus! Also, Andrew Peterson and his friends put on a concert tour every year of the album live. This year, because of COVID they will have a Behold the Lamb of God Live Stream Event . . . follow the link to enjoy the wonderful concert with your family in the comfort of your home! Again, we hope you never hear this portion of scripture the same and are able to see God’s saving hand at work all the way through it . . . thank you to all those who helped bring it alive! Blessings!
