Bramble Rambles: Christmas (aka Bramblemas) is a collection of writings that are focused upon advent, Christmas, Christmastide, and Epiphany.  The book can be read as a devotional, and the intent is to allow for further conversation.  Christmas is a time when people naturally mention Christ, and the purpose of this book is to facilitate faith based conversations.   

Whether people are secular or religious the book addresses all issues around the holiday, including pagan origins and the fact that no one knows for sure when Jesus was born.  

The nativity leads to the cross and the cross leads to the empty tomb and the empty tomb points the way to eternity.  The book is about eternity and the annual celebration of eternity that seems to focus on fruitcake, cookies, sweaters, and toys.  

Santa Claus, Belsnickel, Odin, and other pagan influences are mentioned, but all of those things are cited to show the spread of Christianity.  

Bob and his wife, Renee, are both pastors in central Pennsylvania. Bob has been in parish ministry since 1996, and served as a student pastor in Ohio, a parish in Tioga County Pennsylvania, and currently serves as a pastor in Clearfield County, also in the Keystone State. Ford loves to be in nature where he can be found with a bible and notebook with his beloved beagles with him.
