The Truth About Christmas Part 1b

December 20, 2010
00:00
This week leading up to Christmas we’ll be dispelling some myths related to various aspects of Christmas. From the guy in the mall getting pictures with kids, to the decorations on homes and in stores, to the Christmas cards we receive... virtually everywhere you look these days you see Santa Clause. The story is familiar to many of you no doubt, but what you might not be so familiar with is the real story of Saint Nicholas. As we learned last time, he was a generous, sacrificial giver who reflected the love of Christ. He was actually a pastor! Mike says his life is one worth considering, and emulating. And in this world full of bad examples, it’s nice to have a good example to follow isn’t it?

Churchgoers Just Admitted Something Troubling

The world is wearing out Christians. More and more are saying that spiritual matters rarely come up in their conversations with other believers. Our culture hasn't silenced us, we have talked ourselves into silence. Where Christians should be having an impact, they are stepping aside instead of stepping up.


If you want to break your silence and shine a light into this culture, be sure to request the book Making a Difference by R.C. Sproul.
