Merry Christmas from TSE Studios! In today’s episode of Changing, Donald discusses the importance of the Christmas season. To Donald, Christmas means love. So what does it mean to you?

Why did Jesus come in the first place?

• Jesus came because of our separation from God; we could only be reunited by repenting for our sins. 
• Jesus’s death on the cross and his atonement for our sins allow us to live again.
• We are all God’s children, and he wants us to live with him. And Jesus was willing to die because of his love for us.

Love is shown through Mary.

• Joseph thought Mary committed adultery. But he chose to believe in her immaculate conception because he loved her. 
• Similarly, Mary was willing to believe and deliver the child because of her love for God. 

Love is for all of humanity.

• Jesus’s ultimate gift was to be the Savior, giving us the gift of eternal life.
• We give and get gifts for one another not because we want to spend money, but because we want others to be happy.
• How are you demonstrating that love and happiness to others around you? Share that love with someone you know, be it a brother, cousin, neighbor, or coworker. 

Whatever it may be, Christmas is all about love. How can you show love to others? Find ways to show others peace, love, and kindness, and help them know there is a way people can experience everlasting peace.
