Dear Dr Graham Worded Guidance on Helping a Reluctant Friend
A reader asks how to help a friend who believes in God but clings to a lifestyle she knows is wrong. The guidance urges prayer for her to awaken a hunger for God, sharing Bible truths without harsh judgment, and showing Christ’s joy. It cites 1 John 5 14 Proverbs 14 12 Matthew 7 13 and John 10 10 to encourage compassionate outreach and personal faith.

Nicholas Cleared Of Antitrust Probe
The Oregon attorney general dropped an antitrust and monopoly investigation into S T Nicholas of Gnome Alaska on the eve of Christmas. The release ridiculed the Grinch accusations as unfounded noting no special grand jury would be convened and joking about chimney cleaning enforcement for 1982.

Steer Leads Chase Through Dallas Nativity Scene
In Dallas, an 800 pound steer used in a church living Nativity fled twice from its post at Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church. Police from four squads and a sheriff’s deputy aided Pastor Jesse Shelter in recapturing the animal, which at one point dragged the cleric by a tow rope. Shelter was briefly tossed during the chase before Charlie Brown was returned to its pen around 5 a.m. Church member James Payne suggested the animal’s escape may relate to holiday fatigue from multiple Nativity displays.
