Counting The Real Cost Of Christmas
Direction Magazine
|December 2019
When it comes to honouring God, we need to be more like Joseph, writes MPower Director Mark Lyndon-Jones
We all know that Christmas costs. The commercialisation of Christmas means that retailers are looking for our cash from September onwards – and that puts pressure on any guy!
Kate Hughes wrote in The Independent that families with children under 18 will spend between £1,000 to £2,700 in total at Christmas. Eye-watering! I hope you have a savings plan!
Christmas costs materially, emotionally and spiritually. I don’t mean tinsel, trinkets or a family ‘wow’ moment. I am talking about the cost to the king of heaven and to a couple who didn’t for a moment think that their hope for the Messiah would involve them – and alter their place in history forever.
