Names: Christmas
A Santa Claus Non-Believer Discovers Tolkien’s Father Christmas Letters
I’ve just discovered Tolkien’s Letters From Father Christmas. I found them charming–but they also got me thinking about truth, tradition, and stories.

Speculative Or True?
I suppose a good number of other passages in the Bible also read like speculative literature, but the Christmas story seems to have compacted a number of speculative tropes. There are several angelic visitations, for example. Joseph had a conversation with an angel, and so did Mary. But before them was Zacharias, John the Baptist’s dad, and his encounter with the angel of God in the temple. Most dramatic, and perhaps most well know, was the visitation of the shepherds, first by a single angel, then by “a multitude of the heavenly host.”

Time to celebrate a Middle-earth Christmas, including festivities in Hobbiton and special songs courtesy of the wraiths and the dwarves.

What Is It About Fantasy And Christmas?
The cool thing about good fantasy, however, is that no one explains it. There isn’t a narrator in C. S. Lewis’s Narnia books that says, “Now boys and girls, Aslan is actually Jesus.” Instead, readers are allowed to discover the dots on their own and connect them at their leisure. Or leave them unconnected.

The God Of The Impossible
One thing I love about speculative fiction is the fact that it opens the door to the impossible. It expands our vision of reality.

Christmas Is Too …
Christmas is a pagan holiday. I’ve heard this a lot, and I’ve grown ever more skeptical.

Speculation And Christmas
I find it amazing that our world, broken by division and disbelief, still takes from the holiday that superficially celebrates Christ’s birth, the remarkable gifts God gave when He sent “His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh.”

The True Story That Reads Like Speculative Fiction
It is Christmas, or nearly so, and naturally my focus turns to the Christmas story. The true, Biblical story. I understand that many people in the world look at the accounts recorded in Luke 1 and 2 and Matthew 1 and 2 as myth. And with good reason. Those passages read like speculative fiction.
