Download or read book Merry Midwinter written by Gillian Monks and published by Unbound Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-04 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Lots of ideas for making gifts and decorations but not spending tons of money buying them' Jenni Murray Celebrating midwinter is not about what you buy or how much you spend – it's about your attitude to life. Turn away from the frenetic consumerism of Christmas and rediscover the authentic and meaningful realities of this, the oldest and most precious celebration of the year. The true significance of midwinter is not found in any individual spiritual or religious belief or practice. Instead, the winter solstice provides an opportunity to celebrate what we as humans share; to set aside our differences and come together with a sense of community and cheer. Merry Midwinter is a cornucopia of ideas for how to make your own decorations (kissing boughs, advent wreaths, crackers, stockings and more); your own alternative gifts which cost nothing except your time and thought; your own entertainments and games; and simple, seasonal recipes from years gone by.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that the Christmas story almost wasn't told? But Matthew and Luke saved Christmas. Have you wondered if Christmas is really a pagan holiday? Did marketers invent Santa Claus? And what does a Christmas tree have to do with anti-slavery? We'll learn which traditions come from the Bible and where other traditions derive. Have you ever considered who Jesus was named after? Or why Jesus's genealogy is traced to Joseph if he's not Jesus's biological father? We'll answer questions like these surrounding Jesus's legacy. Maybe you've asked what was the Bethlehem star? Or have you heard that there wasn't an inn or innkeeper? With these kinds of inquiries, we'll look at the circumstances surrounding Jesus's birth. Do we know if the magi were kings, astrologers, or magicians? Or could you name the oldest person that met baby Jesus? By interacting with these people who met Jesus on that first Christmas, we'll join the cast of characters around the manger. As we explore the stories and traditions of Christmas together, we'll ruin some past misconceptions, but in the process, I promise that we'll rediscover Jesus.

This book was released on 2014-06-08 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Ward Jones has a huge imagination and sees things, not as they are, but as they could be, or as he believes they should be. The unanswered questions about Santa Claus were the biggest inspiration for the writing of The Christmas Magic of SANTA CLAUS. The author has pondered these questions most of his life and the idea of writing a book to answer them has gnawed at him every Christmas Season. We all know children have an enormous imagination and a constant backlog of questions - and they want answers! Where did Santa come from? Where is the North Pole? Where did the elves come from? How can Reindeer fly? What does Mrs. Claus do? These questions also nag the parents, because they had the same questions as a child, and do not have the answers either! Through the years, the author began to develop the story using his own imagination about how it all could have happened. The answers came, and the answers began to tell a cohesive story. Now the answers to the burning questions are revealed as the story unfolds in The Christmas Magic of SANTA CLAUS, And its sequel SANTA'S NIGHT OUT. Discover the beginnings of Santa Claus and how he morphed into immortality and why he shall live forever.
