“No one is really neutral about whether Christmas is true. If the Son of God was really born in a manger, then we have lost the right to be in charge of our lives. Who can be objective about a claim that, if it is true, means you’ve lost control of your life? You can’t be.”
(Hidden Christmas, by Tim Keller, p.72)

Words, words, words... well said Hamlet! A little blog to go off on tangents within the worlds of history and literature that interest me. From the Tudors to Tom Hardy's Tess, or from the Wars of the Roses to Wuthering Heights, feel free to browse through my musings to pick up extra ideas and points for discussion!

I love this. And if we’ve lost control of our lives, then we don’t truly have any “rights,” do we? More food for thought, there.

Neutrality is only possible over issues that don’t matter.
The miracle of the Incarnation is anything but that! Thanks for the reminder.
