This week we decide to crash Matthew's Christmas party and see the story of Jesus' birth from his perspective. Things did not clear up. There are random astrologers, a King that can't see a star a few miles from his house and random gifts you know got regifted. We also talk about the greatest gift evangelical's want to see under their tree this year which will drive any sane person to drink.It's a good one folks and we hope that wherever you are and whatever you are celebrating this month it is full of all the good things.
