Drawing parallels between the lessons in Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and her own life, Kelly emphasizes the importance of forgiveness – forgiving others as well as forgiving oneself.
Highlighting key Christmases from her past, with candor Kelly takes her audience from laughter to tears and back again, sharing memories of this special day and emphasizing the grace of God.
From holidays of fun and abundance to those with hunger and want, she found richness in poverty, and lessons of love in The Most Beautiful Ugly Christmas Ornament. Kelly shares how the Hollow Days became Holy Days through the love of Jesus Christ.
Ending with hope, she encourages everyone to live, give and love like Christ. Attendees leave with a fresh perspective of the Christmas season, renewed excitement in the birth of the Christ child, and a bright anticipation of family involvement in the Christmas season.
