While we may fuss that this holy season has become all about materialism or consumer-driven hyper-indulgence, much is to be appreciated about the incredible outpouring of love, gratitude, and generosity that is shown to family members, friends, employers, employees, and even strangers because of this miraculous birth of the Christ-child in a crude, Middle Eastern manger. What started with gold, frankincense, and myrrh to honor this very special newborn babe has exponentially rippled into a massive economic surge the world over. The biggest birthday party in the world is still cause for celebration and the giving of gifts more than 2,000 years later. Yet, it is not what we give on Christmas that matters the most.
Famed scholar and author C. S. Lewis said, “The Son of God became a man to enable men to become sons of God.” That, dear Christian, is the most glorious gift of Christmas!
That gift will change your life – both now and for eternity! Receive it, believe it, and glorify God with all He’s so lavishly given to you and me.

About this Plan
Christmas is a time to pause, ponder, and praise the gift Jesus. Rather than succumbing to the unwanted burden of financial and social obligations, we must intentionally seek stillness to hear the voice of God. Much of our loss of peace comes with the financial pressures we feel when the emphasis of the season is on buying gifts.This plan will help you focus on what really matters at Christmas.
