Christmas Greetings!Merry Christmas, friends! Welcome to Christmas Eve services at MDPC. Fifty-one years ago, A Charlie Brown Christmas aired for the first time. Tonight, we will be showing the clip from that film of Linus reciting Luke 2:8-14. Jason Soroski shared in an article something surprising and unexpected that I had never noticed before about that scene. Right in the middle of speaking, Linus drops his blanket. Linus is always seen with his ever-present security blanket. Throughout the stories of Peanuts, Lucy, Snoopy,

Sally, and others all work to free Linus from his blanket. He is made fun of because of his blanket.

In the memorable scene when Linus explains "what Christmas is all about," he drops the blanket at the exact moment he says the words, "Fear not." It is clear, now that I see it, what Charles Schultz was affirming: The birth of Jesus helps us release our fears because He gives us the power to break the habits we are unable and often unwilling to break ourselves; the birth of Jesus empowers us to drop our tightly held false securities so that we can learn to trust, cling to, and walk with Him instead. May the peace and new life He came to give be yours in abundance this Christmas.

This season and beyond, expect the unexpected from Jesus!

Rev. Dr. Alf HalvorsonSenior Pastor
