2017 Christmas Music Marathon - Day 1


Welcome to the eighth annual Christmas Music Marathon! Eight years are you kidding me? As stated every year, the purpose of this series of posts is to take you mind off of the commercial madness that surrounds this season and help you focus on the true meaning of Christmas through music. Each day between now and Christmas, you can come to this blog and read a short devotional thought, see Christmas celebrated by my family, and watch Christmas music videos that convey the message of the season.
Today, I begin with my traditional beginning. You may drive around your town and look at all of retailers trying to get your business. You will turn on the television and every ad seems to be about giving gifts to those you love. Nearly 2000 years ago God gave us the greatest gift of all, a Savior, Jesus Christ...and it all happened in a little town called Bethlehem. Let's take a walk through Bethlehem. I'm glad you're here and I hope you drop by often. Have a blessed holiday season.
