It's a tradition here at Communication FUNdamentals that we have a video countdown to CHRISTmas! Folks find the most insprirational, creative and fun ways to communicate their love for the Lord and their CHRISTmas Spirit. I find their videos to share with you each year. Some will be old favorites and some will be new. All will communicate the reason for the season in a fun and creative way.
The first in the countdown is Jars of Clay's version of Little Drummer Boy! This is my favorite version of this song but unfortunately, there isn't much "video" to look at. Enjoy the song!
Merry CHRISTmas from your friends at Art of Eloquence.com

Advent: Complaining about those silly Christmas ads you see on TV. Myrrh:...

I'll be sad to see it end in a way, because I simply adore reaching out to my listeners and teaching on a live show. It's been a blast even though it's taken quite a bit of my free time. (Wait..."free time"? I'll have to look that up again. I keep forgetting what that is!) This Thursday is a very special show. Do you have members of your family who are not Christians this Christmas? Have you tried to share your faith with them this year? Do you worry about how you'll get along at the family Christmas gathering? Do they fear...
Technology can be used for good or for evil. It can be a source of miscommunication and a reason society has been lax in learning to communicate effectively. However, it is also a tool that may be used to aid in effective communication and strengthen relationships. So yesterday I was at Walmart with my husband and my son doing our weekly shopping and getting a few Christmas gifts on our list. As I was coming back from sneaking a gift for my son (Shhhh! Don't tell him I told you, now!), I saw my dh on the cell phone. It was my 19 y/o sophomore college girl who now lives 1800 miles away! We are a tag team, my dh...
