A British church, St. Helen’s Bishopsgate located in London produced a video a couple of years ago which is thought-provoking.  While Great Britain is more unchurched than the United States I would suspect that our culture’s prevailing view of Christmas is becoming very similar.  Even for those who know the Christmas story the focus tends to be on consumerism and family.  Watch the video below and let me know what you think.
