    If Satan had prevented Christmas from coming, mankind would have never known righteousness, impartiality, faithfulness or peace.

    “What if Christmas Never Came?” Isaiah 11:1-10 Dr. Seuss was one of the greatest story tellers of all time. My favorite of course is “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” The Grinch hated the Who’s so badly that he wanted them to be as unhappy as he was. Doesn’t that sound vaguely familiar? The ...read more

    Just like Mary, we can treasure up the wonder and joy of Christmas in our hearts.

    Every year at Christmastime we hear people tell us what the holiday means to them. For some people Christmas is a time for opening gifts, eating cookies, visiting with families and friends. For others it’s a time of hectic schedules and endless “to do” lists. And then there are those who simply ...read more

    Four insights about Christmas from heaven’s perspective from the book of Revelation.

Or is it The Grinch, the creature who tries to steal Christmas because he can't stand to see people happy? Well, neither. Today we are going to talk about a real ...read more

    based on 117 ratings
     | 14,018 views

    Christmas without Christ is a contradiction in terms but the antidote is to hear the Word of the Angel and the Worship of the Heavenly Choir, to follow the Witness of the hepherds and ponder the Wonder of Mary.

    Many of us have had more Christmases than we care to remember! We half dread it’s coming because of the superficial spirit brought on by the build up of publicity to enter into the spirit of the festive season. The business world, it has to be said, with an eye on the cash till, seizes upon the ...read more
