The first day of a month-long vacation. How sweet does that sound?!
My church put on a Christmas play unlike any other. I loved it! The play included Herod and his perspective, paranoia, and penchant for putting people to death. Herod's chief adviser, Nicolas, was there when Herod gave the decree to put all Bethlehem children under the age of 2 to death. Then, 40 years later, we see Nicolas, in prison, in deep despair over the loss of his own son because of the decree. But Peter is in prison with him and explains that the real King of the Jews didn't die but instead lived to adulthood. He goes on to show Nicolas that he can be saved because of Jesus' death on the cross. It was a way different Christmas play and it was wonderful!
