Enjoying the Classics at Christmas
Authors like Charles Dickens, O. Henry and Louisa May Alcott gave us some of the greatest Christmas stories in literary history. These authors' stories call us to generosity, reconciliation and sacrifice and encourage us to live with joy and gratitude. Trillia Newbell talks with historian Timothy Larsen about his book, Twelve Classic Christmas Stories, and how diving into these books during this season can help us experience the hope, joy and wonder of Christmas on Living by Faith.
