The name, before His wondrous birth,
to Christ the Savior given.

#35. Three words for those who want to put the Christ back in Christmas: Jingle Bell Rock.
Christopher Hitchens

is the omnipotent Creator of the heavens and the earth!

Toni Sorenson
#44. If you want to feel the truest spirit of Christmas, go out and find someone sadder than you, lonelier than you, poorer than you ... and give what you can in a smile, in time, in compassion. The best Christmases always require the gift of self.
Toni Sorenson

In dreams of all men, saints and sons of shame,
The world will never see his kingdom bright.
