I’ll Be Daggone

I’ll Be Daggone

A 44-year-old Philip Rivers, father of ten children, became the starting quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts.

Harry Truman beat Tom Dewey for president.

Adolf Hitler almost conquered Europe.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding became a box office bestseller.

Mr. Rogers’ influence continues today.

Jesus Christ—born out of wedlock, a carpenter’s son, who was executed—changed the world and continues to change the world.

Many of those unlikely events listed above will be forgotten in my lifetime. I pray the most world-changing one never will be. Of course, part of that is up to us.

Share the Christmas story.
Not Dasher or Dancer or Prancer or Vixen.
Not Rudolph, or even too much about Santa Claus.

The greatest story of all time didn’t arrive with fanfare or fortune, but in humility and hope—a baby in a manger, changing eternity forever.

I’ll be daggone.
