Linus Reminds Us What Christmas is All About

Of the four biographies of Jesus in the Bible, my favorite is Luke’s. Luke also contains the best-known account of Jesus’ birth, made popular by the Peanut’s character Linus.

This well-known clip is from the 1965 TV special A Charlie Brown Christmas. Debuting over fifty years ago, the show addressed the secularization and commercialization of Christmas.

In the past five decades, the situation has grown much worse.

Let’s reclaim what Christmas is all about, starting with today—whether it’s Christmas or not.

May you and your family celebrate Jesus throughout the year.
