There is not much about Jesus as a young boy, but the little that we have is intriguing.  Luke’s summary of Jesus’ youth in Luke 2:52 says the most unusual thing…  "Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men."  What does it mean that Jesus grew in favor with God?  Over the years, I’ve heard many explanations but the best thing I’ve ever read on it came this last week during an interview of Sinclair Ferguson by C.J. Mahaney.
