Recently, we watched “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” for the who knows how many times.  The Hollywood story revolves around the search for the so called Holy Grail, which was the cup Christ drank from at His last supper.  Why the search for this? Because it supposedly would provide immortality to anyone who drank from it. Quite a story, right?  But you can see what was driving all these people to find it.  Well. In the final dramatic scene, Indy surveys a table with many chalices and cups, and he must choose the right one because chosing the wrong one would bring immediate death. 

Since God divided the light and darkness, and called the day light and the darkness night, there have been hundreds of thousands of nights that followed hundreds of thousands days just like clock work!  But there is one of those nights that is VERY special because this was the night when God brought eternal light into a vey dark world!

“The Reason for the Season” is a phrase we hear a lot of this time of year. But what is the reason for the Christmas season? Some might say family, food, and fireplaces. Others might go commercial on us and actually say gifts! But what is the “real” reason for Christmas? You know what it is- it is the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ!
