We went to the annual Festival of Lessons and Carols last night at our kid’s grade school. They put on a very nice presentation of carols and Bible readings. It made me think about how much caroling can help us think about the coming of the Christ child.
So today’s suggestion is to sing some Christmas carols during the Advent and Christmas seasons. You can go out caroling with an organized group or just sing a few at a family gathering. Include plenty of songs which focus on Christ.
I’ve listed a few of my favorites below. Add your own suggestions to the comments at the bottom of this post.
