The Life of Anthony Athanasius of Alexandria Anthony (251-356CE) lived in Egypt, and became one of the fathers of Christian desert monasticism. When he was about 18 years old, and having inherited a large fortune, he heard a sermon about Jesus challenging the rich young ruler to "go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasures in heaven; and come, follow Me." (Matt 19:21) Antony immediately sold all he had, and went out into the desert to life a life of poverty, chastity and obedience. For the rest of his life, he fought demons, performed miracles, becoming a legend in his own long lifetime. (Summary by Matthew James Gray) First Christmas Tree by Henry van Dyke Loyal Books This is a folk tale of how the first tree came into being. It tells of a hero Winfried with his young companion stepping boldly into the pagan right of the passing into winter. He preaches the gospel of Christ and His birth on that night; then from the heavens came a miracle that resulted in the salvation of the people. To celebrate, they brought new life or the Christmas tree into their homes. Christmastide by William Sandys Loyal Books Christmastide: Its History, Festivities and Carols, With Their Music is a collection of essays detailing the early traditions of Christmas in England. This recording includes the prose portions of the book only (The Vignettes). The earliest Christmas customs from the monarchy to the landed gentry are explored in great detail. The passage of time and the influence of circumstance all had an impact on the customs and importance of holiday traditions. Anyone interested in how the Christmas customs we recognize today, and many long forgotten, will find this book a fascinating piece of history. ( Greg Giordano) The True Meaning of Christmas - Video Get A Life Media, Billy Crone This study reveals how Jesus went to great lengths to make sure we didn’t miss this point, and that’s seen when we compare our relationship with Him in the Bible as the Bride of Christ, to the Seven Phases of a Jewish Marriage Ceremony. The True Meaning of Christmas not only unveils this amazing parallel, but it opens our eyes to a two-fold message from Jesus that’s been tucked away all along in the Bible.
