Listen "The Standard Christmas Message"
Episode Synopsis
It’s the Fourth Sunday of Advent, “Love” Sunday, Christmas Sunday. There is a standard sermon for this occasion I have heard countless time in my life – that Christmas is about Jesus, not presents – that Christmas is a spiritual event, not a temporal one. It’s a prescription against materialism. So common is this sermon that it defined my knee-jerk reaction to this piece about the return of Christmas time tourism to Nazareth in Israel after the cease fire. “How crass,” I thought, “that’s a very holy place – it should be about something more uplifting at Christmas than mere commerce.” But then, as I sat here preparing to roll out the standard Christmas message, I thought again.
