Modest Christmas Memory Of Family And Faith
Bill Archer recalls a Christmas in 2004 visiting his mother in law Marge Cozart at the West Virginian Manor in Bluefield. The simple hot dog dinner with baked beans, shared among family and a friend, brought him a sense of heaven on earth and lasting peace. He reflects on faith from Vacation Bible School and John 3 16, and on the joy of giving without rivalry.
