What does a man do when his wife-to-be says she's carrying the child of God? Joseph of Bethlehem finds himself in circumstances that would test anyone's faith, when suddenly responsible for a young girl named Mary, and in the path of an unrelenting waterfall of events for which no one was prepared. How close is the Nativity story of today to what was told a few generations after Jesus' birth? Is Joseph the man you thought him to be? How will Joseph overcome all that threatens the birth of Mary's child, and would history have played out differently if another man had been chosen? There is always another side to every story.
