Chasing the Wind

News. Faith. Nonsense.

Santa Versus the Snowman

See if you can find the “Christ” in this Christmas movie:

Santa v. the Snowman

Santa vs. the Snowman follows a lonely snowman on his quest for friendship. Mesmerized by the magic of Santa’s village, the Snowman devises a plan to take over Santa’s job and win the adoration of children around the world. What ensues is a polar feud of hilarious proportions, where giant igloo robot walkers and elves with hot chocolate squirt guns battle it out. Ultimately, friendship reigns supreme and audiences of all ages are rewarded with a heart-melting holiday film.

Instead of giant igloo robot walkers, I celebrated the first week of Advent this Sunday. We discussed how Christians prepare for the arrival of Christ in the past, present, and future. A polar feud of hilarious proportions was not included in the discussion.

    Baptists and advent? It’s changed a bit from my old Baptist church, or maybe I was asleep in the pew.

    I wouldn’t know if you were asleep. I also wouldn’t know if Baptists normally do Advent. I’ve never been Baptist before. 😛

    So I guess Rudolph and Frosty are out of the picture as well?

    Yep, Rudolph and Frosty are gone. Incidently, I’m having venison and ice cream for dinner.

    I never did like Frosty, unless he’s the kind that came from Wendy’s.

About Me

Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.

Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”

If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.

Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
