I (finally) pulled down my “Complete Works…” and looked up the lines from Hamlet. The passage was duly marked, with references to the imagery of morning. To paraphrase, the things that instill fear cannot walk about in the morning, and according to the lore referenced by the night watchman, throughout the fearful, dark night(s) just before Christmas, the bird sings not just at morning, but all night long, so that the fear of the night things is unnecessary. And, our fear of the night things is unnecessary….As you have stated, the Child has overcome evil.

Thanks for sharing that picture, it is very haunting I can’t help but to stare at it. I am intrigued that the angels have babies. I have never imagined a baby angel.

So random question. This has nothing to do with christmas or the video. But my brother and i were interested in a summer position in colorado and we live in houston also and we were wondering how you got the counselor position.

Dear Don.

Thanks for writing about art. I like it a lot.
And I think that you’re swell.

You and Sara always seem to find the nooks and crannies* of the heart and the mind and bring them to light. That’s why I appreciate you both so much.

I’ve enjoyed her album all christmas through along with Kendall Payne’s newest and Rosie Thomas. They’ve been in a playlist I titled “sweet christmas” and well…it’s been my soundtrack.

This comment has little.. ok nothing to do with this blog. I just thought maybe somehow you’d be more apt to read a note on the most recent blog. I just wanted to thank you so much for writing the four books thus far. Each has been so encouraging and meaningful to me. I feel like our stories of faith and the upbringings of them are very similar. The God i know is so different than the one that apparantly wants to dominate American politics, and spend more money on corny sayings and steps that depict how to be a good Christian(whatever that is), than on actually going out and providing the social justice that we were commanded to. I have wanted to write non fiction books of your style before I even came across them, and now it seems you’ve already written everything I had to say. I’m just glad to find that I’m not the only one of my kind. Thank you for letting me laugh, and sometimes cry with you. Thank you for being such a huge part of reviving my faith in a God that is bigger than our perceptions of Him, and our supposed reflections of Him. I hope that someday I will be able to meet you and give you the gigantic hug you deserve.

God Bless,

(P.S.- You really should have come through Reno/Tahoe on your way to Oregon. Another beautiful scene God slaps me in the face with every once in a while to remind me of his glory.. and his love.)

@John Thompson,

Thank you so very much for sharing your story. I literally gasped at the end. And then was in a wonderful state of awe at how God works in us and through us in amazing ways.
