Why NORAD tracked Santa Claus last night: “Let us joyfully celebrate the coming of our salvation and redemption”

Millions of children eagerly awaited Santa Claus’s visit last night. If you used NORAD’s Santa tracker, you knew precisely where he was on his annual expedition. On any other night, the North American Aerospace Defense Command scans the skies for potential threats. But on Christmas Eve, at least one hundred thousand kids call into NORAD to inquire about Santa’s location, while millions more follow St. Nick’s progress via online reports in nine languages. The story points to the abiding relevance and transformational power of God’s incarnational love revealed at Christmas.About Denison Forum and The Daily ArticleToday's Daily Article was written by Dr. Jim Denison and narrated by Chris Elkins.
