In preparation for this production Detective George & The Gospel Thieves (written 5yrs ago), God lead me to study and include a controversy topic...Santa Claus. But you know it wasn't until this production that I understood why. I didn't question it then because I always told everybody that I believed in Santa Claus. And I still do. I believe in the spirit of which he stood for. He was a "real person" and loved Christ. Matter of fact, a Bishop in the Christian church.
Legends have created the fairy tale image of flying reindeers, elves, North Pole, etc. but this man had the "Spirit of Giving" especially to the needy and poor. I don't think its wrong to adapt his character. Shouldn't we as Christians or simply as humans have that type of spirit.
What prevents us from believing in something that appears unreal? What prevents us from believing in God's Promises...what He has said, will be? Are they too "fairy tale" for us to grasp and hold on to? Please enlighten me!
