Christmas is busy. Real busy.
It is challenging to punch through the Christmas busyness and talk about Jesus.
You need to be short. Sweet. Avoid cliche and steer round our familiarity with the Gospel accounts.
Thankfully technology is forcing remarkable discipline and clarity on our communication. 160 characters (for SMS) or 140 characters (for Twitter) are the 21st century scroll length.
So in this busy Christmas season I put this challenge out to you. Tell the Christmas story in less than 160 characters. The best ones might just go viral.
Need help starting? You could try…
"Christmas is…"
"All I want for Christmas is…"
"The true meaning of Christmas is…"
"The surprising thing about Christmas is…"
Of course, with so few characters XMAS is a perfectly acceptable abbreviation.
