I have restructured the message, however; want to ensure I give proper credit. TITLE: MARY’S SIDE OF THE STORY SCRIPTURE: ...read more

    Instead of writing new words for the Christmas story, finding new bits of humor, finding a new “angle”, this sermon shares the old words. It is all Scripture and carol lyrics put together to tell the story.
