Wild and free

A Christmas confusion

Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas! Jesus is the reason for the season! Santa Claus delivers presents on Christmas Eve. The Magic of Christmas. Really? Is it magic? Do we need magic, or do we need to be real? Just a few questions as this time of year does appear to push many towards crisis. Why?…
