Merry CHRISTmas from Art of Eloquence!

It’s CHRISTmas Eve–a time for reflection, family and praise for Christ.  Since The Year of Faith over on my newsletter is just around the corner.  (Be sure to subscribe to this blog for in 2014, I’ll be back with a weekly column to educate and amaze!)   I’m taking these last few weeks of 2013 to share some praise and worship with you.

This video touches on one of my pet peeves about CHRISTmas time.  There is very little Christ in CHRISTmas anymore.  Most of the Christmas movies talk about it being all about family and love.  A nice concept to be sure, but certainly not the focus of CHRISTmas.  Some of the Christmas movie line up doesn’t even talk about Christmas!  Every year during the Holidays there is a Harry Potter marathon!

So to do my share, please enjoy this very special CHRISTmas video.  Becky Kelley with Where’s the Line to See Jesus:

 

Merry CHRISTmas one and all!

The more quickly you are able to make connections, the more easily you will be able to search your mind for examples to illustrate your point in conversation.  Keep your mind agile and get used to thinking on your feet.  Exercises like these help train your brain in the skills needed to communicate effectively in social situations.  Almost anyone can read a well-written speech, but it takes great skill to think on your feet while trying to debate an issue or converse with a deep thinker.
