When you think of Christmas, odds are that you’ll have the typical thoughts and images come to mind. Christmas trees, gifts, wrapping paper, classic movies (including Die Hard), lights, ornaments, decorations, and all of that. And when you think of Christmas from a Christian viewpoint, odds are that you’ll have the typical thoughts and images there as well. Jesus, God, the manger, angels, Mary and Joseph, Christmas carols, and all of that.
What you probably don’t think of, when it comes to Christmas, at least not at first, is violence, chaos, and war. But that is ultimately an important aspect of what the Christmas story is. Christmas is a part of a long and violent war story. It is THE war story to end all war stories.
It’s not the normal Christmas message, so let’s get started.
