Special Christmas Moments



We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

A real classic, and one of my favorites.

Re: Special Christmas Moments

The congregation I used to attend acquired its first Processional Cross in 1999.

It was only afterward that I realized what "A Charlie Brown Christmas" was really all about.

The single ball is placed on Charlie's poor little tree.  It bends over and "dies" ("I've killed it!”)

After Linus quotes from St. Luke, he grasps the "killed" tree  as though it  processional cross and leads the group outside.

The poor little tree is given a resurrection into something more glorious than ever before courtesy of stripping the overly-decorated doghouse of Snoopy.

Death and Resurrection is really what A Charlie Brown Christmas is all about.

The death and resurrection shown not only in the tree, but in the stripping away of the materialism and greed which had even  infected Snoopy.

What is Christmas all about?  Romans 6!


Life is an Orthros.
