Christmas 2012

Posted on 22:01 by Unknown
It is difficult to believe that Christmas is just a couple of days more than seven weeks away. I've noticed the local Christian radio station has already started playing Christmas music.

I think that it's odd that they will be playing primarily "Christmas" music for the next eight weeks when they always play songs about Our Lord and Savior. Throughout the year, they never play secular songs, but during the Christmas season they will play seasonal songs like Frosty the Snowman, Winter Wonderland, White Christmas, etc. Not a big deal--just an oddity.

Each year, we have this great opportunity to share with people of all backgrounds and beliefs the reason for celebrating Christmas. For the next 50 days, let's be very mindful of the opportunities to share the reason for the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus.

Merry Christmas!
