With the holiday rush in full swing people are trying to get their last minute shopping, decorating and cooking done for the perfect festive celebration. So as a distraction from the hustle and bustle of the season we wanted to ask them some holiday trivia. What three gifts did the wise men bring for baby Jesus? Antonio Padilla: Gold, frankincense and myrrh? Frosty the snowman was a happy jolly soul. He had a button nose, two eyes made out of coal and what else? Bonnie Smith: You're asking the wrong person about Christmas Carols. Was it a top h...
I was recently on Facebook and came across a woman who said that she and the man she takes care of were needing a Christmas dinner delivered and wondered if there was a church or organization who could help them out. She did some checking and found that there was no one who could help them. I started talking to different people and found that in our community there really are people here that are willing to help people in a time of need. I was given some money donations to help get them food for their freezer and to help stock their cabinets... Full story
We seem to turn the pages on our calendars faster each year and then have to put up new ones with new scenes. We also have to cope with changing numbers of the year as we write checks and letters. For the first six months, I'll probably continue to date everything 2012 or even 1912 for all I know. We have been using 2000 for more than a dozen years, and I still think in terms of the 1900's.

Twas the day after Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was sleeping, not even a mouse. Why? Although the song says when the baby awakes, no crying he makes, the song, it was lying, for the baby was crying. Although he was perfect regarding sin, Jesus suffered the same physical desires and maladies common to all of humankind and it's sheer speculation that he didn't cry as a baby (Hebrews 4:15; 2:14; John 11:35). While we can speculate about that and what it was like on the day after Jesus was born, and even whether or not that...
