Twas the Night Before Christmas

You know the familiar refrain:

Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the house
Not a creature was stirring
Not even a mouse….

But is that what Christmas is about?  About santa and gifts and …

Of course not.

So, what really happened on Christmas long long ago?

To hear a insightful audio explanation by Dr. Chuck Missler, HERE'S THE LINK and when you get there click on "Listen to Part 1"

You will probably want to listen to the other parts (there are 5 in all) but Part 1 will answer the question about when Jesus was Born. 

And, if that link doesn't open for you (The google program is acting up again), then do this as a cut and paste:

Or you will also find a link to the explanation as part of the short article (referenced next referring to the origin of the various Christmas traditions...).

And to read a short article about the origins of the various Christmas traditions such as Christmas Trees, Wreaths, etc. HERE'S THE LINK.
