Bah Humbug Part 5: Changed
Bill Corley
Original Air Date: 2023.12.17
Attributed to the famous character Ebenezer Scrooge in the novel “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens, the expression is used to refer to a disapproval of something others enjoy, such as Christmas.
Many people feel Christmas is humbug and there is often a reason. Things from the past or the present can influence our view of Christmas and even impact our future. The busyness of life, the financial stress, or unmet expectations during the holidays can interfere with our ability to enjoy the season and if we’re not careful, Christmas becomes Humbug!
BUT... God’s plan for Christmas was to send His Son into our world, our pain, and our struggles to bring hope. He came as an infant and changed the course of history. Jesus is the reason we celebrate, the reason we have hope, the reason we can heal, and the reason we can look forward to the future.
