My last Christmas Letter

Dear Family and Friends,
I decided to write you all a Christmas letter this year to let you know about some changes that are taking place in my life. I have been studying the Bible, and studying Church history, and I have made some startling discoveries that will affect my life forever. I have been studying the roots of many of our Christian Traditions, and I have been shocked to find out that many of the things we do (our traditions and practices) have absolutely no connection to Jesus or the Bible. In fact, many of our traditions are deeply rooted in Paganism. I will try to be brief in my explanation, but I apologize if it gets a little long, there is a lot of history to cover in this note.

The First Christmas Ham

Ham has become the centerpiece of most Christmas dinners. Have you ever wondered why? I was curious, so I did some investigation into the history of this Winter Holiday Tradition, to see where it came from. The answer just might surprise you, as it did me.
