Ah, December. Hmm, there is a nostalgia about this time of year. Winter sets in, Christmas lights go up, work parties, dinner parties, gift exchanges, decorating Christmas tree, decking the halls with baughs of holly... All these pleasant traditional roots embraced and held onto coupled with the absolute stress of maxing out credit cards, waiting in staggering queues, stalking people to their cars so you can be first to snatch their parking space!But is all this what Christmas is about? Christmas has been hijacked. However there is one thing that people do at Christmas that does have at least a root of merit. Gift-giving. But what we miss is that God is the Gift-Giver! As this season marches on and the temptation to go another year with the true meaning of Christmas being lost in the blizzard of materialism and narcicism, I would encourage you to listen to the message here entitled "To You Is Born A Savoiur". This is the glory of Christmas!
