The Purpose of Christmas DVD Study for groups and families features three sessions taught by Rick Warren on why we celebrate Christmas and how it can change our lives forever. At the very first Christmas – the birth of Jesus – an angel announced three things. In those three statements of the angel, we find the three purposes of Christmas. The three sessions on this DVD looks at each of those purposes: 1. Christmas is a time for celebration 2. Christmas is a time for salvation 3. Christmas is a time for reconciliation The DVD and Participant’s Guide are available at your local retailer and online at: ChristianBook.com – zndr.vn BN.com – zndr.vn Amazon.com – zndr.vn

Part 1:Why I Don t Celebrate Christmas and Easter The main reason that I don t celebrate Christmas and Easter is because of what God told Israel in Deut. 12:2832. 28Be careful to obey all these regulations I am giving you, so that it may always go well with you and your children after you, because you will be doing what is good and right in the eyes of the LORD your God.29The LORD your God will cut off before you the nations you are about to invade and dispossess. But when you have driven them out and settled in their land,30and after they have been destroyed before you, be careful not to be ensnared by inquiring about their gods, saying, How do these nations serve their gods? We will do the same.31You must not worship the LORD your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do…

The season of peace and goodwill is under threat in the United States amid claims that a “war on Christmas” has been declared. Rows about the display of traditional Christmas symbols have broken out across the country. But one of the pressure groups accused of being partly responsible has told Sky News it defends its campaign on behalf of non-Christians and non-believers. The usual debate over whether it is acceptable to say ‘Merry Christmas’ or ‘Happy Holidays’ has exploded into a much wider disagreement this year. Thousands of people took part in a prayer rally in the city of Athens in Texas after an atheist group took court action to have a nativity scene removed from outside the courthouse. They claim it promotes Christianity and excludes non-Christians but a judge has so far ruled the traditional Christmas scene can stay. Becky Paul, who was among those at the prayer rally, said: “Christ is the reason we’re here. I mean this is his birth, and that’s why we need to be celebrating and we just pray for the people who don’t believe.” Carla Barron, another of those who turned up to show support, said: “It is not about the nativity scene, it is about Jesus. It is the reason we celebrate Christmas, Jesus is Christmas.” The row in Athens is just part of a fierce nationwide debate about the right and wrongs of displaying religious symbols in public places. The First Amendment of the US Constitution prohibits the government from promoting any religion but also prevents it from …
