Merry Christmas!

As Christmas nears, I again have been remided to remember the "true meaning of Christmas". Society reminds me that it is the time of year to generous and cheritable to others. I've read in Luke 4 where Jesus challenges us to give to others. To be generous with what we have for those who just don't have. Jesus' self-proclaimed mission in this chapter was to preach the gospel to the poor and set people free. What stood out to me was not just that we need to be generous with our money/time, but also be generous with the spiritual gift that God gave to us. How have we taken any chance to give the liberty of Christ to those who are "oppressed" this season?
