    To so many, the mystery of this event brings a magic to their celebration like none other. Let’s unwrap the greatest Christmas gift ever given and discover the REAL REASON for the SEASON... Why was Jesus Born?

But he didn’t. His was a two story dwelling that was only 30 feet tall. So, did he just put the tree ...read more
