Ligonier Ministries 2009 Christmas Gift Guide by Ligonier Ministries, Inc.

Dear friend, Like every other year, this Christmas season will be filled with joy and activity. Cookies will be baked, cards will be sent, special music will be heard, and presents of all shapes and sizes will be exchanged. We will be on the lookout for the perfect gift, the one that will bring great delight to our loved ones. As in years past, I am looking forward to seeing my friends and family open the presents I am giving them this year. But as I give them, I always work to remember why we give gifts at Christmas. We give gifts in order that we may, in some small way, imitate the one who gave us the ultimate gift two thousand years ago. Christ is this ultimate gift, the Son of God who became

Merry Christmas,

In a world where we are likely to have neighbors of differing faiths, to profess Jesus as the only Savior may be viewed as arrogance and intolerance. Religious “pluralism” is gaining popularity. Ronald Nash believes that one’s position on the issue is crucial to an understanding of the Christian faith and sees pluralism as a significant threat to Christianity. He presents his case compellingly, in accessible terms and a readable style.
