Slate Writer Discovers SINGING Christian Christmas Trees - The South 101

Another post from Get Religion I wanted to highlight that made me chuckle. See All about those singing Christmas trees!

As he points out and documents this is not new. I suspect that this has been happening outside the Bible Belt . but this has been happening for many many decades down here. I can recall going to the Singing Christmas Tree at Temple Baptist in Ruston Louisiana . It was the huge event. And oh there was quite a Gospel message at the end usually. One year I when I went with Louisiana Tech Catholic students the preacher atop the tree helpfully told us that "Christ was not sacrificed between two candles".

Memories.
