Christmas Plans

With the birth of Christ began the story of our new birth. The birth of our new hope. A Savior, all-powerful and yet willing to take on the form of a baby to make a way for us to come to the Father. A perfect plan for our rescue and redemption.

Focus on Christ

Anticipation fills the air! And we start using words we never use. What even is figgy pudding, and who is Yuletide Carol? Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love appear everywhere as we count down to the birth of a savior - who promises that even in this imperfect world, we can experience and embody these four things, even now in the chaos of life.

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

On a quiet night 2,000 years ago, angels brought news of the Savior’s birth to shepherds tending their flocks—and after hearing the news, those same shepherds left everything to seek a baby in Bethlehem. All these years later, the invitation has not changed. Join Dr. Charles Stanley as he helps you draw near to the Savior, encouraging you to make time to rest in the Father’s love this season.

Journey To The Manger

Preparing for Christmas takes on many different forms for us all. Although we might become entangled by the flurry of decorating, family, cooking, or wrapping gifts, we must not miss the true celebration. Since the sixth century, Advent has served as a time of preparation for the event of Christmas. It reminds us to prepare our hearts as well as our homes for the glorious celebration of Christ’s birth. The hymn writer said, “Let every heart prepare Him room.” Truly, we must set aside time and make room for the Prince of Peace to reign in our busy lives. He alone is the One who brings true hope, love, joy, and peace.

Prepare Him Room

This Christmas the One Minute Apologist wants to answer questions you may never have thought to ask. Is Christmas a Pagan holiday? How many wise men were there, and many more. Don't let this Christmas pass without spending time reflecting on the birth of our Savior, and all the events surrounding that historical day.
