A good friend of mine started a conversation project and I told him I’d be happy to participate.  He’d probably know what I’ll write here, considering that we’ve both gone to GCAF back in Cagayan de Oro, but it’s all good.  What’s important is the intention of the conversation starter; and that is to let others in on the conversation of what the Christmas season is about.

So, not very succinctly, here’s my take of the Season.  Christmas is not about Santa, elves, reindeer, or gnomes.  It’s not about pine trees, tinsel, mistletoe, or fruit cake.  It’s not just about gift-giving and sharing either, though these are done with Christ in mind.  Christmas is about celebrating the birth of Christ, and what he’s about to do 30-something years afterwards.

What’s your take?
