Sadly, this Advent Card Talk is applicable every year...

On Sukkot and guest rooms: Why rethinking the "traditional" mis-tellings of the Nativity is so important. 

 . . . one year we’ll defend our belief in an incarnation timed for Sukkoth as there is no way Jesus was born in December, and we’ll write the Card Talk about how the wise men did not show up until He was three years old. Eventually we’ll even address the fact that the little drummer boy was actually a drunk Roman solider looking for his estranged wife (okay, we just made that last one up) . . .
