Holtz was asked how he felt about playing a game on Christmas rather than being at home with his family. After all, once you have been to church, had Christmas dinner, and opened the Christmas presents, Christmas is the most boring day of the year. Now I will admit that I have seen churches and known preachers who can take the greatest story ever told and put people to sleep with it. But surely the problem lies in the messenger, not the message. That s why December is such a wonderful month to be at First Christian Church.
Chess is boring.
Watching grass grow is boring. Shaving is boring. The Weather Channel is boring. The Cleveland Browns offense without Tim Couch is boring. Call me biased, but God being born in a stable, through a virgin, wrapped in rags and laid in an animal s feeding box is anything but boring.
