What is Christmas all about? If we hit the streets and asked this question what kinds of answers would we hear? Family? Generosity? Gifts? Unity? Peace? All of these answers are nice and would fit the scene of any TV programming this time of year, but they miss the mark don’t they? I could tell you what my little 3 year old daughter, Avery, would say if we asked her what Christmas was about. She would tell us that it is about Jesus’ birthday. And this is right, but isn’t Christmas about something more, something vastly more significant? Yes! What we celebrate on Christmas is that the unthinkable has happened! Something incredible occurred on Christmas 2,000 years ago and John helps us see it with fresh eyes!
