Holiday Specials

I love to watch several of the Christmas movies and Christmas specials that are on tv this time of year.  The nostalgic feeling you get when you watch an “oldie” from when you were a kid brings back memories.  I tried having the Teen Group identify the top 10 Christmas movies of all time at our Christmas party but they didn’t know at least half of them.  Well, at least they’ve never seen half of them.  Does that mean they aren’t any good?  No.  The kids just need to be exposed to them by someone.

It’s just like Jesus.  People may not know about the saving power of Jesus and need someone to show them.  The audience is primed for the good news because of the special music and lights that are happening.  It’s easy to see that something special is going on in your neighborhood, malls or in your church.    Reach out to that special someone who needs to learn about Jesus and help them understand the specialness of Christmas!
