SHOW NOTES:
In today's special Christmas episode, I talk about the story behind one of the most influential, and yet at the same time, lesser-known Christmas carols of the past, I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day. Learn how this song brings hope as it allows us to wrestle with such questions as, "Where is the peace on earth?" and, "Where is God's concern for His people?"
