Whoever says, “I know him,” but does not keep his commandments

Christmas is a time of love and family.  It is a time when we remember that the greatest gifts of all [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One thing, of course, is what most Americans want—really. Another is what we need. Sometimes the two overlap; other times they don’t. So, for what it’s worth, here is my take on the latter. In past years I have referred to this as my “Christmas wish list,” but that was very imprecise.

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re quickly approaching the 1-week red alert for Christmas, and those of us stressed about making those last minute gift purchases should first remember the real Reason for the Season &#8230; and then breathe a sigh of relief because there are still some excellent ways to incorporate Christ and our faith into those gifts.

The latest attack on Christmas comes through a picture of Jesus dead on the cross, drawn by an eight [...]]]></description>
