Hatred against Jewish people is on the rise, surprisingly even among professing Christians.

The Case for Christmas:by Lee Strobel
Who was really in the manger that first Christmas? And how can we know for sure? In this revised and updated edition of The Case for Christmas, award-winning legal journalist Lee Strobel weighs the biblical, historical, and textual evidence to separate myth from truth about what happened in Bethlehem. He covers the reliability of the birth accounts, the virgin birth, and the Old Testament prophecies fulfilled by the birth of Jesus. This Christmas, look past the distractions of the season and discover anew Who was born that day. Request your copy today.
