Holidays: Preference, Orientation, & Freedom!

Posted on December 21, 2013 by Steve Simms

What is your holiday preference?  My holiday orientation is Christmas — celebrating the birth of the living, resurrected Jesus Christ!

Christmas is Freedom Day — time for mental, emotional, and spiritual captives to be set free from their self-destructive thoughts, attitudes, and actions!

“She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins.”

“God asks us to liberate ourselves from self-absorption, from our narcissism.  It requires great courage to be liberated from the bondage of this world.”  –Maximos of Cyprus

Merry Christ*mas

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
