    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Dec 16, 2005
    based on 23 ratings
     | 3,386 views

    Even at Christmas, we must remember that the coming judgment will deal with how we live our lives today.

    based on 114 ratings
     | 11,377 views

    We can get complacent when driving the same route every day and become oblivious to the dangers - and Christians can become so used to the manger we get complacent with the meaning of it.

    I heard the story once of a great Cherokee wood carver. He took logs and sat them on a stump outside his back door and sat in front of that log sometimes for hours just staring at it. Finally, he would pick up his carving tools and start carving the most beautiful of things out of the wood. He ...read more

     | 22,812 views

    We need to put our focus on Jesus at this time of year, and to help others do the same; by sharing the Lord with them; by loving them; and by actually leading them to Christ just as someone else led us to Christ.

But, in the last few years, something terrible has happened. Somebody has stolen Christmas! Not only ...read more
