Luke:2 1-7 1 And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. 2 This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria. 3 So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city.
4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. 6 So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. 7 And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
We celebrate with God, the birth of His Son.
He came to free us...
and to save us...
and to give us Hope, Peace, Joy and Love.
As you contemplate giving this year, think about giving the gift of God's Word to your friends and loved ones. It never goes out ineffective.
Hope for the future because He is Born.
Peace for the world because He reigns.
Joy which shall be to all people...
Love came down and we will never be the same.
Peace be the Journey.

Hi John! I read both your books over the weekend while I was snowed in. I couldn't put them down until I was finished. It felt like you were talking to me. I felt like this was your story from your heart about your loved ones and friends. It seemed so real that I felt I was part of the story too. Love really is what... sustains us. You have a great gift and thanks for sharing it with all of us. God is with us. Nancy Walker
