Yesterday's Breakpoint column focused on Bob Welch, a talented writer that I really like, who makes his daily living as a sportswriter for the Eugene Register Guard and fulfills his calling by writing thoughtful novels about how Christ impacts the relationships of those closest to us. Welch says that, "Grace is the foundation of the Christian faith. Jesus' granting us grace by forgiving our sins flies in the face of virtually every other religion, which operates on a you-get-what-you-deserve basis. But Jesus says, in essence, you don't get what you deserve. You get what you don't deserve.” Christmas is the season commemorating the fullest expression of God's grace in the form of His son coming into the world - the substance of things long hoped for. That is something for which I am very, very thankful and is deserving of the grand celebration of Christmas.
