Merry Christmas everyone!

Merry Christmas to all!

God’s blessings to all and thank you for this beautiful post.

@ Nick Bulbeck:Amen!

Happy Christmas to the TWW community.

Merry Christmas to all the contributors. Despite what the objects of many of the posts on this blog think, pursuing truth, justice, and support for the abused is part of what following JC ia all about, IMHO. The Bible is full of exposing misbehavior on the part of leaders, both political and spiritual, and the Bible does not participate in cover ups, putting down those abused by false leaders, etc.
Further, much of JC’ s teaching was is parables, or indirect forms. He seems to think we can think for ourselves, and struggle with issues; as opposed to the simplistic, top down, ” Hotel California” approach we read about so often here.
The longer I live, I the more complex life issues become to me; however, putting others first is not complex…. JC was the ultimate example of putting others first…

Dee and Deb, Guy Behind the Curtain, and the TWW community — all y’all are one of the best all-year-round presents (and presences!) I’ve received. Thanks for helping me/us survive, regain resiliency in the face of injustice and evil, and find continued insight, transformation, and hope.

Wishing everyone at TWW a meaningful Christmas, and a great 2016!

Merry Christmas!

A very merry Christmas to all of my friends here, and especially to Deebs, without whom many of those closest to the heart of the King would be suffering alone.

Very well stated Mr Bulbeck. Thank you Deebs – my family prays for you and your families daily. Please thank them for sharing you with the world. Merry Christmas to all at TWW and best wishes for a happy and healthy New Year!

Thankyou from New York. And may God bless you both and commentators, TWW-ers have helped me in ways that I cannot explain easily. Resiliency in the face of …evil-that says it all. Thankyou.

Thanks to all who were praying for me and my brother. My brother passed away on Dec 23 at 12:15,am. I am surprisingly calm due to prayers and support. I have definitely felt God’s presence. My brother Tom went through 12 years of Catholic School and came out of that with a healthy skepticism of religion. He eschewed religion and embraced Jesus’s teachings. He lived his life giving to others. He was always there when others needed him. Although he had a Masters degree, he lived very simply and what material goods he had he shared with others. He was very loved and respected in his community, I expect there to be 250 people at his funeral. He and I had many discussions on religion over the years, it was particularly interesting during my fundie days. Theology was not important to him . Living like Jesus taught was important to him. Many would not think he was a Christian because of his disdain for church authority. To me he was the best Christian I know.

Thank you@ Deb:

I am a day off so…

Happy Boxing Day!
There is about 20 hours of English Soccer on, even here in the States….

@ Leslie:
I am so sorry for the loss of your brother. He sounds like a remarkable man.

Have a great time in California!

I’m eating In-n-Out burger which I have waited for 12 months!! Lol!! Hope you guys had a good Christmas. I’ve been busy traveling. Today is my first full day in Cal

I apologize for our weather. It’s strange when the East Coast has much warmer weather than we do. But we still have In-n-Out Burger which they don’t.

Hope all had a Merry Christmas and will have a wonderful New Year. Wishing the best for all in the coming year.

He sounds amazing. God bless you & yours in your loss of a true Christian gentleman.
