Helping Your Teen Keep Christ in their CHRISTmas!
Anika's blogpost says "There is no reason why we can’t teach our kids, no matter what age they are, the true meaning of Christmas and how to keep Christ in Christmas. One of the ways I’m going to do this is by giving them only 3 gifts each. Three represents Jesus in so many ways, like the trinity, the gifts of the three wisemen and that Jesus rose on the third day."

One Last Challenge:
I liked the idea of listing CHRISTmas songs that are Christ centered. Since they are no longer taking submissions, I thought I would give you all a chance here. Please list your favorite CHRISTmas songs that focus on Jesus.
Hi JoJo,
I love the pic of the puzzle you have for us to download. However, I can't get the link to work. What am I doing wrong?
I first saw this in your e-newsletter but didn't see a link, so I visited your website and then your blog page.

I was raised by two Atheists of Jewish heritage, married a non practicing Catholic and became a non denominational Christian due, in part, to some Amway meetings and a Jehovah's Witness who came to my door. My purple crayon writes with humor and almost always a little out of the lines.

This blog is my creative and fun way of sharing my thoughts on communication skills relating mostly to homeschooling and sharing and defending the faith. It also reveals a bit about how the Lord took this shy Agnostic girl and allowed her to find her voice and her purpose, a zany voice to the Christian community with insight as to what unbelievers need to hear about Christ Jesus.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'll share news items, quotes, family friendly humor, tips, trivia, and my newest feature: Question of the Week. I invite you to come share your thoughts!
