The Christmas Quiz

The Christmas story is often polished and cleaned up, but the original scene was desperate and filthy, with Joseph and Mary delivering their firstborn in a stone cutout in a hillside. The innkeeper's words to Joseph and Mary were not recorded, and the stable where Jesus was born was likely a hollowed-out cave in a Bethlehem hillside. The story of Christmas is a powerful metaphor for the human heart, and the question remains, is there room for Jesus Christ in our hearts today? [... more]

This powerful message highlights the importance of following God's will, even when it's difficult, and the significance of Jesus' early days as a precursor to his ultimate sacrifice. [... more]
