    We should insist on acknowledging and honoring Christ in the way He has directed us in His word, not in a way that men determine for themselves.

She and Joseph would’ve checked out of the hospital and gone home. As such, the manger is now empty, much like the ...read more

    The manger is empty as well as the grave. We are not dealing with a child.

    He’s Not A Baby Anymore! We are in the season where everybody gets all mushy. Maybe it is because a baby in a manger brings out the paternal instincts in people. Maybe it is because a baby is not threatening. There is something about the Christ child that gets more attention than the day we ...read more

    Angels' music, while sweet, was not designed to be a resting place for a baby's head. Since cribs are not found in stables, the only thing that could serve that purpose was something as simple as the feeding trough of the stable animals ... the manger.

    The sun was setting over ancient Palestine, as it had done so many times before. The wife of the manger-maker walked to the back door of the little workshop in the back of the house, as she had done so many times before. She went there to tell her husband that the evening meal was ready. ...read more
