      <description>&lt;p&gt;The first Christmas changed everything forever. ((This post is adapted from a devotional I wrote for my church, McLean Presbyterian.)) And let’s be clear about what that means. Christmas is not an idea, not an emotion or an attitude or an ethos or symbol. Christmas isn’t a metaphor; it’s an event. It’s a fact of history. It really happened, and &lt;em&gt;when&lt;/em&gt; it happened everything changed. The King of Kings is born!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

You listen to different music, you cook different foods, you shop differently and play differently. The home smells sweeter; the fires are warmer; friends seem merrier. Even our worship changes. In every area of our lives it’s just beginning to feel a lot like Christmas.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
