Though only a fragment of the story, here is a simple biblical reading of the real meaning of Christmas as told through the iconic warmth of the Charlie Brown character, Linus. What is the real meaning? The blessed incarnation of Jesus Christ the Lord - "Immanuel, God with us."
This is a small, yet profound blessing that every holiday season this will be heard by millions through network TV via this beloved comic strip turned animation. Enjoy it with your whole family and be sure to share it with a few friends who, like Charlie Brown, may be screaming to know what Christmas is all about.

There is a great story about Charles Schulz and the making of Charlie Brown Christmas...His producer told him that the special was too religious and the network (CBS) would never accept it. He said, "We can't do this." Charles Schulz told him, "If we don't do it, who will?"
i love the charlie brown christmas!!! and that speech by linus is the best part. i hope it will be a good reminder to everyone who watches it what Christmas is all about.
I posted this video on my site too. I really enjoy this blog. God Bless.
