    MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

    A Christmas Day Podcast.

    Merry Christmas everyone. Thanks for joining us on such a special day. We have really enjoyed putting together this Christmas podcast series. There have been so many lessons shared with refrences made to modern poems as well as scripture. It has been a joy learning about the meaning of Christmas stories, symbols and hymns.

    From a contemporary viewpoint, it's interesting that we have had our government and our Pope, both ask us to go easy on spending this Christmas. This sits comfortably, as we ask you to share your time, company and skills with loved ones. Such moments are precious and any time we can afford from our busy schedules can be gladly appreciated and well received.

    If you are looking for some good reads over summer, we have two suggestions:

  • Christmas carols
    Dec 21 2022

    One thing we can always trust at this time of year is the wonderful sound of Carols. Like them or not, they play an essential function and carry inspiring meaning. Listen as we explore different hymns, their story and provide context on why they are important.

  • Christmas and our faith
    Dec 19 2022

    From a faith point of view, what should Christmas mean?

    There's more to life than fate. Through our own efforts we can make our lives richer and more meaningful. As Christians, we believe God is in our world and that he has love for us all.

    God is not an idea or philosophy. He came onto this world in human form through his son, Jesus. Who was born, not as a king or someone rich and powerful, but born and raised in humble settings. Someone who would grow up like other children, learning life lessons along the way.

    Christmas sees God enter human history. It can also be the beginning of our exploring or revisiting faith.
