Christmas

A few of my favorites this holiday season.

Love this book!

It takes less than a couple hours to read.

The title is self explanatory.

The Christmas song below is from my favorite Oregon band, Kutless.

The lyrics are simply beautiful.

They sing about something that tugs at my heart every Christmas.

"Have we lost the reason why we celebrate each year?"

And finally, a classic.....  A Charlie Brown Christmas.

The part when Linus explains the true meaning of Christmas.

Straight from the bible.

There were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.  An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.  But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid.  I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.  Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.  This will be a sign to you:  You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."  Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests." 

- Luke 2:8-14
