Lay reader Anthony Schulz explores the idea of business handed down from a father to his children. [Instrumental - Christmas 1]

The first Gospel, Mark, starts with the baptism of Jesus. The Gospel of Matthew, for a Jewish audience, first traces his ancestry back to Abraham. The Gospel of Luke, written for Gentiles, traces his ancestry back to Adam, the common ancestor of all.
