Who is Gabriel and what does he have to do with the Christmas story?<br />3. What is the relationship between Jesus and John the Baptist?<br />4. Where did Mary, Joseph, and Jesus go to escape Herod?<br /><br />If you know the answer to all four of these questions, you are in the 12% of adults in terms of knowledge of the Christmas story according to <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=500467&in_page_id=1770">this article</a>. <br /><br />Sometimes I wonder why it is that we tell the same story at this time every year. But this reminds me that there is still a world in screaming need to hear about the life giving birth of the Messiah.Davidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05630973401574721684noreply@blogger.com
