As we enter the week of Christmas, life can get pretty hectic. With all the shopping, decorating, cooking, and socializing, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Remember, the holiday season is meant to be enjoyed, not stressed over.
Yes, when we think about Christmas, many of us associate it with gift-giving, festive decorations, and delicious food. But at its core, Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ.
According to the Bible, Jesus was born in a manger in Bethlehem over 2,000 years ago. His birth was announced by angels and witnessed by shepherds who were tending their flocks nearby. The arrival of the baby Jesus was a miraculous event, and it marked the beginning of a new era in human history.
As mentioned in this inaugural episode of BOLO:Jesus is Coming teaching Pastor Chip Ingraham has a great two-part series asking "Why Did HE Come?" It's a great Bible study and we encourage you to visit Living On The Edge for the entire series. Also, please visit our website FirstRepondersBible.org for other resources and for a copy of our FREE Bible just for First Responders. Please "subscribe" to our podcast and share a copy with a friend.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
