| A 4-year-old's perspective of church.... |
|
| |
As we drove by a church that was heavily decorated for Christmas, Timothy asked, "Mommy, is church all about Christmas?".
I told him that in a way it was, and then asked him why he thought that. He quickly answered, "Because Christmas is God's birthday." I replied, "Yes, Christmas is Jesus' birthday".
In his own little four-year-old way, I think he understands quite a bit about church. Without Christmas - Jesus' birth -- what kind of church would we have? We don't just celebrate Jesus at Christmas time -- as a church we celebrate and worship Jesus all the time - so yes Timothy --Church is all about "God's birthday" (as Timothy put it). |
