“Christmas inspired Frances, motivated her, and “Christmas inspired Frances, motivated her, and kept her from depression during the winter,” wrote Nancy Carpentier Brown about G. K. Chesterton’s wife. “The Infant in the Manger was her heart’s desire, and she loved to describe His tiny feet, little hands, and small footsteps.” When N. C. Brown prepared her book on the writings of Frances Chesterton, she began with an essay written by Frances that first appeared in the Parents’ Review. “The essay was written before her marriage and sounds strikingly similar to G.K. Chesterton, so much so that one wonders if he inspired her words, or if she inspired his. In any case, we can see how they thought alike.” Frances served as the Organising Secretary of the PNEU from 1896 to 1901. After her marriage to Gilbert Keith, she continued to make contributions to the Parents’ Review. She expressed her devotion to Christmas year after year in original poems presented in Charlotte Mason’s inimitable journal. In December of 1918, Frances’s latest Christmas poem filled the second page of the Parents’ Review. Entitled “Seen and Unseen,” the poem painted a vivid picture of a conversation between Mary and Joseph as they gazed upon their newborn child. Today we share this poem for your inspiration this Christmastide.

“One of their chief objections to the Christian “One of their chief objections to the Christian religion is that it is mysterious,” wrote Rev. Francis Lewis. “They lose patience with it. Everything, they think, in religion ought to be clear, plain and straight-forward.” No time of year is this more apparent than Christmas. God is infinite. Man is finite. God is perfect. Man is fallible. God is strong. Man is weak. God is One. Man is many. And yet this week we face an unfathomable mystery: God became man. Lewis’s 1920 sermon follows the thread of mystery which sheds light even on education. “Suffer the little children to come unto Me and forbid them not,” said Jesus, “for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” Read or listen to Lewis’s sermon at the profile link. @artmiddlekauff
“We have probably all heard the story of the bel “We have probably all heard the story of the belated shopper who was informed by the shop assistant, ‘There are no Christmas cards left, only Nativity scenes’. That this astonishing remark is not apocryphal is witnessed by another incident which has lately been in the news. It was proposed that a Crib should be set up under the Christmas Tree outside Belfast City Hall this year: the Crib has been vetoed in favour of a scene from Red Riding Hood. It is a sorrowful century in which a so-called Christian country rejects the Christmas gift and retains only the wrapping, and the only comment which meets so contradictory a situation is the remark made by Napoleon on his death-bed, ‘Stupidity fatigues me’. … Fortunately we need not stop short at fatigue: whatever our religious denomination we know that Christmas without Christ is unthinkable and we can all, whatever our age and wherever we live, do something to ensure that the Christ Child is not excluded from His own Birthday Party. … Well, as Dickens himself pointed out, ‘It is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its mighty Founder was a Child himself’, and we can all chime in with the carols and we all claim the privilege of taking part in the crusade of giving children all over the world the Christmas Crib that their parents may have overlooked.” (Anne Jerningham, PR 70, 1959) @tessakeath
