Ebenezer Scrooge was mean because of the condition of his heart. What we are is a consequence of what we have been and what is inside will eventually come out. In this teaching, Peter shares how Jesus is the true gift of Christmas and shows us the true love of the Father. As we ask Him to walk through our lives and search our hearts, He will set us free. God can change us in the present from the effects of the past, to give us a future.
