Lars Walker tells a parable of “God with us” at Brandywine Books.

I’m collecting advent/Christmas stories, true stories, fiction, even poetry —whatever I find inspirational or memorable that my favorite bloggers share this Christmas. I may put all the links together in a carnival-type post on Chirstmas. But for now I’m sharing one a day as I find them.

Do you have Christmas stories to share? Write them down for yourself and for your family. Do it now. Next year may be too late. And maybe there’s someone, maybe me, who needs to hear what only you have to tell.
