Christmas is a really special holiday and a wonderful time of year. It is a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus of Bethlehem. What an extraordinary night! A gift unlike any other has been given to us - one that filled the earth with greater love, forgiveness, and eternal hope.  

 

Throughout history, there have been many wonderful stories that have helped us understand the lasting impact Christmas has on each and every one of us, stories that teach us to be grateful for the acts of love and consideration that we receive, and in turn, to do small, quiet acts of kindness for others.  

 

In this episode, we wanted to share with you two of these stories that happened in 1938 and 1914 – how Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was born, and the World War One Christmas Truce. Both of them show the true great meaning of Christmas and can serve as encouragement for us to do good this holiday season, in any way that we can.
