Encore: Our most popular episode of 2025! Original air date January 14, 2025Today, I want to dive into the topic of cool flowers and the importance of planting them in very early spring. The basic idea is to plant these flowers in cool to cold conditions to get the best performance out of them, which can happen in fall, winter, or very early spring.Many people have been led away from planting during these unusual times. But I assure you, this is where the magic happens! For flower farmers, planting cool flowers can significantly boost your business. We're talking about flowers like:Bells of IrelandSweet peasStockSnapdragonsLisianthusLarkspurStatusPoppiesWhen planted at the right time, these flowers bloom earlier, grow taller, produce more stems, and are more resistant to diseases and pests.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 25, 2025 is: noel • noh-EL • noun When capitalized, Noel refers to Christmas or the Christmas season. Uncapitalized, noel refers to a Christmas carol. // We were greeted at the door by a group of carolers singing noels. // Every year we send our family Christmas cards with our photo enclosed wishing everyone a joyous Noel. See the entry > Examples: “The meeting began with a touch of holiday spirit as members of the Woodland Park High School Madrigals sang three selections. The first was a Noel song with a medieval/renaissance feel that was well matched to their festive costumes. They followed with the popular ‘Carol of the Bells' and ‘We Wish You a Merry Christmas.'” — Doug Fitzgerald, The Pikes Peak (Colorado) Courier, 9 Dec. 2024 Did you know? English speakers borrowed noel from the French word noël, which is also used for both the Christmas holiday and a Christmas carol. It can be traced further back to the Latin word natalis, which can mean “birthday” as a noun or “of or relating to birth” as an adjective. (The English adjective natal has the same meaning and is also an offspring of natalis.) Noels were being sung in Latin and French for centuries before English-speakers started using the word to refer to Christmas carols in the 18th century. An early use of noel (spelled Nowel) to mean “Christmas” can be found in the text of the late 14th-century Arthurian legend Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.

Three_Bells_to_Perdido

The Weisman Family Christmas with Brad, Jess, Catherine and CarsonThe room is buzzing before the mics even warm up—tree debates, cookie takes, and the joyful chaos that only a family Christmas special can deliver. We invite you into our living room as we swap stories about real trees versus fake, the power of a good holiday soundtrack, and why Christmas Eve still hits like magic. If you've ever argued over which movie starts the season or whether peppermint deserves a permanent spot in the freezer, you'll feel right at home.We move from traditions to taste—Plow Farms popcorn while picking the tree, the Colors of Christmas album during decorating, and Andrea Bocelli on repeat when the house finally quiets. The kids put in their votes for advent calendars, school news segments, and those TastyKake cookies that somehow disappear faster than the beef and lobster on Christmas Day. We revisit the greatest gifts—PS5s and Starter Jackets, Ataris and Pianos—and consider what rising wish lists say about what we value now: time, tools, and the chance to make something together. There's even a hopeful plea for a 3D printer, because creativity is a gift that keeps giving.Beyond the fun, we sit with what matters most: gratitude for health, faith that centers the season, and the steady warmth of being together. Not everyone gets these moments, and that awareness deepens the meaning of the ones we do have. From Christmas Vacation and Elf to Carol of the Bells and the Post-Thanksgiving music rule, this is a cheerful, honest snapshot of a family finding rhythm, laughter, and purpose in December.If this episode made you smile, tap follow, share it with someone who loves the holidays, and leave a quick review to help others find the show.

Find out what the “Six White Boomers” means for Australians during the holidays in this special Christmas week episode of Being Human with Steve Cuss. Steve gets cozy alongside The Bulletin co-hosts Russell Moore and Clarissa Moll for a candid, funny, and deeply comforting conversation about Advent, Christmas carols, and the “mental and emotional load” many people carry this season. Together they explore joy and grief at the manger, the hope of Emmanuel (God with us), and how the nativity story—through figures like Joseph, the shepherds, and the light in John 1—invites us to bring our whole selves to Jesus and be “human-sized” again.  Episode Resources: Andrew Peterson's Behold the Lamb of God How A Charlie Brown Christmas Almost Wasn't (The New Yorker) Bing Crosby - Christmas Classics “In the Bleak Midwinter” (Christina Rossetti poem + Gustav Holst tune) Boney M's Mary's Boy Child https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/just-drop-the-blanket/ A Charlie Brown Christmas: Linus reciting Luke 2:8-20 Russell Moore's Always Festivus and Never Christmas (article) White Christmas (movie trailer) The Bells of St. Mary's (movie trailer) National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (trailer) The Nightmare Before Christmas (“What's This?” clip) Six White Boomers (Australian Christmas song about kangaroos) Wombat Divine (Australian children's Christmas story) Biblical Passages Luke 2:8-10 (ESV) Matthew 2 (ESV) John 1 (ESV) Romans 8 (ESV) Sign up for Steve's Newsletter & Podcast Reminders: Capable Life Newsletter Get Your Copy: The Five Steps to Christmas Sanity PDF New Candles, Advent Prayers, and Journals: https://www.stevecusswords.com/ Join Steve at an Upcoming Intensive:  Capable Life Intensives Learn more about your ad choices.

There is a popular holiday movie based on an award-winning children's book called “The Polar Express.” In the story, a young boy is unable to hear the bells at Christmas. The reason? The disappointment of life had dimmed his belief and wonder. It was only after a magical encounter that he was able to believe again.Now, I know that story is about Santa Claus, but there are some striking parallels to our walk of faith. Life in this cold, dark world has a way of dimming our belief, too.Maybe this Christmas, the bells in your heart have gone silent. You once believed in a good, loving, powerful God – back when you were a kid.  But then life got in the way. The doubts began to creep in.  To you who struggle to believe that there is a God who's in control, who cares, and who understands, Christmas holds the answers to your questions. Is God in control? God literally moved heaven and earth to fulfill His purposes for mankind. He moved the heart of a king so His Son would be born in Bethlehem. He can handle whatever you're facing. Does God understand? Jesus didn't come as a conquering king or as some sort of superhero.  He came as a baby to dirt-poor parents among a marginalized people.  But even more, He was born in a barn and slept in a feeding trough, wrapped in rags. Why? So that we would never wonder if He knows what it's like to really live in this cold, dark world under the worst of circumstances.  In “The Polar Express,” there's a great line offered by the train's conductor in his attempt to get Billy to at least investigate the possibility of another reality.  He says to him, “Sometimes the most real things in this world are the things we can't see.”The Apostle Peter thought the same thing. He wrote, “Though you have not seen Him, you love Him.  And even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy.” (1 Pet. 1:8)God came to our world and faced all of its ugliness firsthand. He understands exactly what you and I face – because He faced it too. God came to earth in human form, seeking us.And if you will go on an honest pursuit of Him, God promises that you will find Him (Jer. 29:13).  And you, too, will be changed for the better.   Text: Is. 9:2, 6-7; 1 Pet. 1:8; Jer. 29:13Originally recorded on December 24, 2007, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

Onion revelations, baby stand up, a realistic night before Christmas, Tinder for cows, a French artillery shell, and the holiday classic Cashier’s Bells are among the minutiae topics discussed this week by Rick and Dave. [Ep414]

Send us a textThis weekend's program was produced in 2022 and was prepared to focus our attention on the Christ of Christmas. In the right column are resources and ideas for you to use personally with your own families.  The Christian Worldview wishes all of you a memorable and meaningful Christmas.  To God be all Glory!Christmas is upon us. While it's easy to get distracted by all that competes for our attention—current events and politics, work and school, sports and recreation, travel and material things, even family and church—there is really only one most important issue and that is the person of Jesus Christ and what He has done for mankind.Jesus said, “He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him” (John 3:36).That couldn't be more clear. Where you spend eternity hinges on whether you place your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.Christmas is the time when Christians remember and celebrate God sending His Son into our world, born of a virgin woman, mighty and holy in word and deed, and loving and sacrificial in offering His perfect life to satisfy God's wrath and justice for our sins.Today will be a program to think about not Christmas generally, but the Christ of Christmas specifically. We will read God's word, listen to some music, even do a Christmas quiz, all to appreciate and worship the God/Man, the Lord Jesus Christ. For none of us would have any hope without His “One Solitary Life”.-----------------------------Program Notes:CHRISTMAS RESOURCES for you and your family:QUIZ/POEMS/READINGS:Christmas QuizHistory behind I Heard the Bells on Christmas DayOne Solitary LifeOn Going Home for ChristmasVIDEO:The Gospel | Paul WasherTreasures of the Snow filmThe Legend of the Candy CaneTruce in the Forest short filmHans Brinker film Amazon or YouTubeMUSIC:O Holy Night | Phil WebbThe Messiah | Robert ShawTCW Christmas Music (Spotify)

Ladies and gentlemen—and whoever else is listening—welcome back to the show. My guest today is Jashub Hinton, a 15-year-old piano composer whose talent far exceeds his upcoming driver's license privileges. Jashub recently released a beautiful new arrangement of one of our all-time favorite Christmas classics Carol of The Bells. He joins us today to talk about his journey—how he got started, how he's grown as a musician, and how not listening to his parents may have contributed to his current addiction… to the piano. It's a condition he may be managing for the rest of his life—and honestly, we're all better for it. So, Piano Guys...fair warning, This kid is coming for you.   FOLLOW JASHUB TODAY YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@BabyGrandPianist-k8p #BabyGrandPianist #DontListenToYourParents #JashubHintonPiano #PianoGuys #ThePianoGuys #PatrikPietschmann #JonSchmidt

Jingle the AI Bells by New York Prosecutors Training Institute, Inc.

Hosts battle for the best Jingle Bells. Taped before a live studio audience.

Historically, the celebration of Christmas and Carnival could overlap, and there is some reason to believe that customs associated with the former were inherited by the latter. A clue to this calendrical shift is offered by the Christmas song, “Carol of the Bells,” which uses the melody of an old Ukrainian New Year;s carol, one which dates back to the era in which New Year was celebrated in March (hence the springtime imagery of its original Ukrainian lyrics). Ukrainian postcard commemorating the folk song”Shchedryk” source of “Carol of the Bells” After a brief look at the variable date chosen to celebrate the New Year throughout European history, we take some time to rethink our modern understanding of what constitutes the Christmas season.  The common notion that the season ends on December 25 or January 1, possibly including the weeks leading up to those dates, in historical understanding, was reversed, with Dec. 25 representing the start of Christmastide, which at the very least ran until Epiphany (Jan. 6) or Candlemas (Feb. 2). The merger of Christmas and Carnival is not only aided by the historically later end date of Christmastide, but also the variable start date for Carnival. A number of regional dates preferred for those festivities are discussed with Germany’s initiation of festivities on November 11 being the earliest. Another reason to suspect that Carnival inherited some of its customs from Carnival is the carnivalesque quality of the Christmas Feast of Fools celebrated anywhere from Dec. 26 to January 6.  The wild, and sometimes dangerous revels celebrated on those days (and discussed in Episode 100) were ended by local bishops at roughly the same time that Carnival celebrations in France and Germany emerged, suggesting  re-channeling of anarchic impulses and customs. Our discussion then turns to the Roman New Year, the January Kalends, which likely inspired chaotic elements around the Feast of Fools. Of particular interest here are accounts of celebrants dressing in animal hides and horns. a custom that seems to have survived in certain Carnival traditions, including a number discussed in my Carnival book.  One of these, the Kurent of Slovenia, who happens to be rather similar to the Austrian Krampus across the country’s northern border. In Western Bulgaria too, another Carnival figure, the Kuker, in western regions also makes  use of animal hides and horns (as well as bells).  Bulgaria also provides us with an interesting 20th-century case study of the merger of the traditions of Christmas (or “Surva,” the Bulgarian New Year) merging with springtime fertility customs of Carnival, both strands being associated with the Kuker. We wrap up with a brief look at Slavic celebrations of the Christmas cycle as Koliade (various spellings), a name for Christmastide and the customs associated with it, particularly door-to-door “good luck visits” incorporating short plays and songs, kolyadka in Ukrainian, the original of “Carol of the Bells” (Shchedryk/”Bountiful Evening”) being one of these songs “New Year’s Carols” (Kolędnicy noworoczni) from “A Polish Year in Life, Tradition and Song” (1900). The sources for this show are Mr. Ridenour’s books The Krampus and the Old, Dark Christmas and A Season of Madness, Fools, Monsters, and Marvels of the Old-World Carnival.

The White House is touting the strength of the nation’s economy; despite data showing Americans remain concerned about inflation and job security. Vice President JD Vance is the latest Trump administration official to tout a rosy economic outlook, during a rally in Pennsylvania. Harrisburg lawmakers are expected to send a bill to Governor Josh Shapiro’s desk that changes the way workers access unemployment benefits. As Philadelphia prepares for the nation’s 250th birthday next year, a dozen artists are painting bell-shaped sculptures that represent Philly neighborhoods. Caregivers in Pennsylvania are celebrating a rare pay boost, but long-term funding issues linger. Dickinson College is the latest area college to announce a more affordable option for middle-class families. Littlestown, Adams County native Aubrey Nicole placed fourth in NBC's "The Voice." WITF, along with hundreds of Public Media organizations across the country, is facing a significant annual budget gap with the loss of federal funding.

And finally, we look to the day after. The bells have stopped ringing, the guests have gone, and the wax has hardened on the table. We often treat the holiday spirit like a decoration—something to be packed away in a box until next year. But what if the kindness, the open doors, and the shared bread were not a seasonal performance, but a blueprint for how to live? In this final reflection, we ask what it means to carry the light of the feast into the famine of the ordinary days ahead.   If these moments of quiet connection and hope resonated with you, we're thrilled to tell you that the full collection, When the Bells Don't Ring by Danny Ballan, is now available on Amazon and everywhere books are sold.
