The Christmas story never grows old.
It is fresh every year.
It is not a holiday—it’s a holy day.
Without Christ, there would be no Christmas.
Every Christmas we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ
It’s easy to be so busy we crowd Christ out of our Christmas - Celebrating the season and not the reason.
