This Victorian song-story… …by Lorenna McKennit, a retelling of the first Christmas story, is a delightful mixture of two time periods…and two poverty-stricken children. At least, One of them is rich, now…and willing to share His riches with those of us who are willing to have them.

II Corinthians 9:15 refers to Christ as God’s “Gift” to us with the richest possible descriptive word. It is translated, “indescribable” and “unspeakable” and could literally be rendered “too wonderful for words”. Indeed, He whose name is “Wonderful” is wonderful beyond what human language can even begin to describe! May our hearts be filled with [...]
