A multi-talented friend of mine made this sketch about a hundred years ago, give or take fifty. Recently, I unearthed it from deep in my archives. It deserves exposure so that it might perhaps prompt meaningful Christmas reflection for some amidst all the Santas, reindeer, and hyper-consumerism of this faux joyous season.
Like it or not, Jesus is in fact the reason for the season.
May you be blessed by Him this Christmas and always.
If you’re reading this blog, perhaps you’d like to subscribe to my newsletter as well. Even though it’s 75% shameless self-promotion, something for which I’m justifiably famous (or infamous—the difference between the two has been lost in these days of ethical and moral ambiguity) there are occasional tidbits to entertain or make you think. For example, in the latest edition, released just this week, there is a mutant lobster story! Where else are you gonna see that?!?
To subscribe, visit the bottom of the welcome page of this blog (for your convenience, you can reach it here) and enter your email address in the box at the end of the article. Hey, it only comes out twice a year. Whaddya got to lose?
That’s all from here for now.
