It’s the day before the day before the night before Christmas and the song is “Santa Claus it Coming to Town.” Did I ever tell you about the time I told a little girl there is no Santa? I was not yet in kindergarten and she was younger still. She was bugging me singing this song when I was trying to watch something on TV. I turned to her and said, “Santa’s not real.” And the adult conversation came [...] Read more »

Does it feel like Christmas is coming in your part of the world? My sister returns from Africa in a couple of days. She’s home for Christmas and them off (I think) to the Dominican Republic for another short term missions trip. She’s been asked by the organization she was with in Africa to write a book about her experiences. I’ll show her how to plan the book out and will likely publish it through ExpectancyPress.com What makes it “feel” [...] Read more »
The Christmas Story comes down to us from antiquity from two main sources. I’m not counting the Armenian Infancy Gospels or the more modern Saint Nicholas folklore. The Story of Jesus coming to earth as a baby are delivered to us by primarily two of the gospel writers – Matthew and Luke. They give the details. They highlight the fulfilled prophecy. They place the event in world and Jewish history. But the other two Gospels tell us a lot more [...] Read more »

I told you in the first post this week that I would let you know my favorite Christmas account. Is it Matthew that tells us Jesus came as our King? I love Matthew’s interest in how prophecy is fulfilled – I don’t understand it all, but I love seeing how he saw prophecy fulfilled. But it’s not my favorite narrative. Is it the lack of a story in Mark? When I was a kid, Dad started a tradition of reading [...] Read more »
The Gospel of Matthew was written to Jewish believers. His geneology places Jesus in Jewish history. He continually points out how Jesus fulfills the prophecy for the Messiah – including, but not limited to the fact that the Messiah: Would be a descendant of Shem named Abraham ( Genesis 22:18; 12; 17; 22). Fulfilled: See Christ’s genealogy in Matthew 1. Would be a descendant of Abraham’s son, Isaac, not Ishmael (Gen. 17; 21). Fulfilled: See Christ’s genealogy in Matthew 1. [...] Read more »
I live in a Canada, far enough North that Christmas is almost always white. I can remember once when we got our first snow Christmas Eve, but that’s a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. We normally have snow that sticks around by the end of October. But God bless El Nino – this year we haven’t seen much of the white stuff. So it’s been a little hard to get into the Christmas mood. Tonight as I write this, we’re setting up the [...] Read more »
