Love Came Down At Christmas

Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Dec 22, 2024

At Christmas if all we speak about is Jesus and the manger in isolation of his life of love and sacrifice we are doing the gospel a disservice. Christmas is a redemption story - tell it with all its glory.

As we prepare for Christmas, sometimes I wonder if we have allowed the Savior to be stolen from our celebrations. I say this because “Merry Christmas” has been replaced with “Happy Holidays”, businesses exclude Christmas by saying “holiday sale” and when someone asks if you are ready for Christmas ...read more
