Growing up, Christmas was magical. My parents made first things first, and gave us consistently quiet, deeply magical, family-centred, Christ-focused Christmases. As I grew up, I realised how truly rare this was, as so many friends expressed distaste for the holidays because their parents were stressed, or they were introverts dragged from event to event.  So often, we get caught up in the hustle of the Season, missing both its true symbolism and losing opportunities to carve out truly life-giving memories for our families. Jennifer's step by step guide to making Christmas, hosting, giving, and gifts simple, priorities focused and delightful is the perfect way to step into the Season.

Christmas Eve 7pm Sermon Pastor: Rev. Sean McDonald  Scripture: Luke 2:1-7 In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered. 2 This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. 3 All went to their own towns to be registered. 4 Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he was descended from the house and family of David. 5 He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. 6 While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. 7 And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

"But here's the good news: The best story — the truest story — reminds us that the Maker of Heaven and Earth bent time to be near us, to dwell with us, to bring light into the dark corners of our lives. Jesus is the message from our God, who doesn't require perfection but longs to meet us in the mess. The miracle of Advent invites us to let go of striving and be held by the One who catches every tear, knows every imperfect part we try to hide, and calls us beloved."Leave a comment for Kayla: https://incourage.me/?p=250347--The winter issue of DaySpring's Everyday Faith Magazine is out now!

kerst was over slechts een paar dagen.En: Time was tight; Christmas was only a few days away.Nl: Aan zijn zijde liepen zijn vrienden Eva en Lars.En: Walking by his side were his friends Eva and Lars.Nl: Eva, altijd vrolijk en behulpzaam, stond stil bij een kraampje met geurige kaarsen.En: Eva, always cheerful and helpful, stopped at a stall with fragrant candles.Nl: "Misschien houdt je oma wel van een mooie kaars," stelde Eva voor, maar Bram schudde zijn hoofd.En: "Maybe your grandma would love a nice candle," suggested Eva, but Bram shook his head.Nl: "Mijn oma houdt van ambachtelijk gemaakte dingen.En: "My grandma loves handmade things.Nl: Iets met een persoonlijk tintje," antwoordde hij.En: Something with a personal touch," he replied.Nl: Lars lachte en klopte Bram op de schouder.En: Lars laughed and patted Bram on the shoulder.Nl: "Ontspan, Bram.En: "Relax, Bram.Nl: Je komt er wel uit," zei hij.En: You'll figure it out," he said.Nl: Maar Bram had een plan in gedachten.En: But Bram had a plan in mind.Nl: Vorig jaar zag hij een speciale kraam met prachtige, handgeweven sjaals.En: Last year, he had seen a special stall with beautiful, handwoven scarves.Nl: Zijn oma's lievelingskleur was blauw, en hij hoopte zo'n sjaal te vinden.En: His grandma's favorite color was blue, and he hoped to find such a scarf.Nl: Hij bladerde door de zee van mensen, op zoek naar die ene verkoper.En: He sifted through the sea of people, searching for that one seller.Nl: De tijd begon te dringen en Bram voelde zich steeds meer overweldigd.En: Time was running out, and Bram felt increasingly overwhelmed.Nl: De markt leek uitgestrekter dan de verhalen.En: The market seemed more sprawling than the stories.Nl: Ondanks zijn beste pogingen, leek hij zijn zoektocht op te geven.En: Despite his best efforts, he seemed ready to give up on his search.Nl: Maar toen, net op het moment dat hij op het punt stond de moed te laten zakken, vond hij de kraam.En: But then, just at the moment when he was about to lose hope, he found the stall.Nl: Zijn ogen begonnen te glimmen van opwinding toen hij de sjaals zag.En: His eyes began to shine with excitement when he saw the scarves.Nl: Daar hing een sjaal precies zoals hij zich had voorgesteld: handgeweven, in de mooiste tint blauw.En: There hung a scarf just as he had imagined: handwoven, in the most beautiful shade of blue.Nl: Hij pakte de sjaal op en voelde de zachte stof tussen zijn vingers.En: He picked up the scarf and felt the soft fabric between his fingers.Nl: Het was perfect.En: It was perfect.Nl: Hij herkende de vriendelijke vrouw achter de kraam van vorig jaar en glimlachte.En: He recognized the friendly woman behind the stall from last year and smiled.Nl: "Deze is precies goed voor mijn oma," zei Bram tevreden.En: "This one is just right for my grandma," said Bram, satisfied.Nl: Bram betaalde de vrouw en stopte de sjaal voorzichtig in een mooie papieren tas.En: Bram paid the woman and carefully placed the scarf in a nice paper bag.Nl: Hij voelde een vlaag van opluchting en geluk.En: He felt a wave of relief and happiness.Nl: "Dank je," voegde hij eraan toe met een brede glimlach op zijn gezicht.En: "Thank you," he added with a broad smile on his face.Nl: Na de markt door ‘sneeuw bedekte straten te hebben verlaten, liep Bram naar huis.En: After leaving the market through snow-covered streets, Bram walked home.Nl: Hij kon niet wachten om zijn grootmoeder te zien glimlachen als ze het cadeau openmaakte.En: He couldn't wait to see his grandmother smile when she opened the gift.Nl: Onderweg besefte hij dat hij niet altijd perfect hoefde te zijn.En: On the way, he realized that he didn't always have to be perfect.Nl: Het persoonlijke, het oprechte, maakte een cadeau speciaal.En: The personal, the sincere, made a gift special.Nl: En zo leerde Bram dat door te vertrouwen op zijn instinct en tijd te nemen voor mensen van wie hij houdt, hij altijd het juiste pad zal vinden.En: And so Bram learned that by trusting his instincts and taking time for the people he loves, he would always find the right path.Nl: Wat echt telt is de liefde en de gedachte die je aan iemand geeft, meer dan de geschenken die je geeft.En: What truly matters is the love and thought you give to someone, more than the gifts you give.

BOB'S BEST BUYS Wine: No.1 Family Cuvee Assemblage Cuvee Marlborough Methode Traditionelle, $36 Why I chose it: French winemaker Daniel Le Brun and his family pioneered Methode winemaking in Marlborough and have made some of NZ's best bottle-fermented sparkling wines – always with a French accent. It's a blend of three grape varieties; pinot noir, chardonnay and pinot meunier. It has been cellared for 3-5 years. This is truly a truly stylish sparkler that offers great value at this price. Perfect Christmas wine – everyone will love it. If it survives Christmas, enjoy it on New Year's Eve. What does it taste like? It tastes like champagne with citrus, apple, and freshly baked baguette crust. It has a seductively creamy texture. Why it's a bargain: It is one-third the price of good champagne but it is certainly not one-third the quality. Where can you buy it? Whisky and More, Waikato $34.99 The Hamilton Beer and Wine Co $35.99 Food match? Freshly shucked oysters Will it keep? A few years if stored well (write the date of purchase on the bottle) LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What is Christmas about but eating, drinking and being merry? Rosalind is here in part 1 of our two episode Christmas special to help you do all those things! But of course, Christmas is also about caring and giving so she's also been visiting a charity that is doing just that with the help of the public. First up on this festive episode of Scran Rosalind heads to Bowhouse Market in Fife - if you are looking for a festive shopping destination without any of the guilt of buying from supersize producers then this is the place for you!  Luckily there is one more market happening before Christmas so this is your opportunity to hear from a small selection of the food and drink traders who will be there to help you tick off that Christmas list. First up Rosalind chats to Susie Anderson of East Coast Cured, followed by Stuart of Barnett's Bakery in Anstruher who was joined on his stall by his daughter Jessie, Lucy Patto Davidson from Fodder and Farm and Rosie Jack who manages the market. Every year the team at Scran like to take the time to feature a charity in Scotland who is working with those who won't be able to enjoy the Christmas they might have wished for. This year we went along to the Eva Burrows Life House project in Cambuslang which is run by the Salvation Army. There Rosalind met with Karen Good who runs the service, service users Stephen and Peter and finally staff members Yvonne Mackenzie, Paula Thomson and David Dean. Finally, you'll hear Rosalind chatting to Fiona Grant, the Founder of Glen Lyon coffee who have released a special Christmas coffee that you are going to want to get your hands on before the festivities begin.

Christmas comes but once a year. But Christmas music? Well, that seems to come earlier and earlier each year. Brenda Lee made headlines this month when her 1958 tune, "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," made the Billboard's Hot 100 chart for the first time. That's 65 years after the original was recorded, proving some classics never go out of style. But the world of Christmas songs isn't always good times and cheer. For decades, Christmas music in America reflected the country's mood – happy and not so happy. Some can be right down sobering like Nat King Cole's version of "The Little Boy That Santa Claus Forgot," while others stay forgotten under the tree. We dive into the world of Christmas music, and discuss what makes a great Christmas song. We also revisit the documentary "Jingle Bell Rocks!" as it celebrates its 10th anniversary.
