Peanuts & The True Meaning of Christmas

I saw this video clip from A Charlie Brown Christmas on OSV Daily Take and thought I would share it with you. Linus' monologue is actually a reading of Luke's account of the Nativity.

The author of the OSV blog post points out that Father James Martin, S.J. noted on Facebook that Linus drops his security blanket at the exact point he mentions Christ the savior.

My wife Stacey loves this movie. Our daughter Tiffany recently shared it with her co-workers in Slovakia. By the way, Starbucks is currently selling a CD/DVD set of the movie for less than $15.

UPDATE (9:55AM) Amazon is providing the Charlie Brown Christmas storybook to Android owners free. Today only.
