One of the heart-stirring symbols of Christmas joy is the clear ringing of a church bell, calling from its steeple, sending forth the message that God's Son came to earth. Building on the theme of Longfellow's I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day, Dr. Shelton Smith relates it to seven scriptural occasions which are dear to the heart of every believer. The message of the bells is the timeless truth of God's love sent down to earth in the tiny form of His sinless, perfect, only begotten Son. This Christmas, hear the bells once more. Let their message stir your heart and awaken your spirit to the truth.
