I hope you have found yourself basking in the spirit of Christmas.
I just wanted to take this time to say why I enjoy Christmas. First of all, I'm just happy to be a Christian. And for clarity that doesn't mean I am perfect -- far from it actually. Its very simple really...it means that I believe in Jesus and that he was sent by God, died on the cross, was ressurected - all just to save me from eternal hell. What did I do to deserve that? I personally can't think of one thing I did to deserve it -- what a gift.
I know many people who have issues with religion. Seriously I was one of them -- especially in college. But I'm telling you -- don't get bogged down in the Disney protests or gay marraige debate. That is not what being a Christian is about...An author named Lee Strobel has written several good books on this topic...and I suggest them if you have never thought about it.
