  Thoroughly researched and thoughtfully written, Dr. Ahokas has provided his readers with a deeper understanding of the meaning and significance of Jesus' birth as "the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!" I would encourage you to read "The Christmas Story...Forever Told" during the advent season or any time of the year to gain a greater appreciation for the wonderful gift of God's Son. -Evangelist Danny Ottoson  
  Steve (Dr. Stephen Ahokas) has put his whole heart into this project. He has relentlessly researched, sought pastoral and critical counsel, and tirelessly created a unique devotional study. He effectively communicates some oft-overlooked details surrounding the birth of Christ that should get you thinking about the circumstances of His birth and drop you to your knees in worship of Him as your personal Savior. Every person who takes a few minutes each day during the advent season to ponder the Christmas Story along with Steve ought to walk away a more equipped believer in the real story of Christmas. -Pastor Paul Klassen 
  For over two thousand years Christians have been trying to understand and explain the meaning and significance of the birth of Christ without delving into how and what it spoke to the Jewish people (His people) at the time of His birth. Consequently, the full meaning of the birth of Christ and the Christmas season is not commonly understood by the masses. This book clears up the misunderstandings by examining how and what the circumstances of Christ's birth spoke to His people at the time of His birth. In so doing, it reveals the deeper meaning to us all of referring to Jesus as the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world.

  A Hitch in Space - Two Men One...

  A Hitch in Space by Fritz Leiber - My Space-partner was a good reliable sidekick—but his partner was something else! 
  Once when I was doing a hitch with the Shaulan Space Guard out Scorpio way, my partner Jeff Bogart developed just about the most harmless psychosis you could imagine: he got himself an imaginary companion. 
  And the imaginary companion turned out to be me. 
  Well, I’m a pretty nice guy and so having two of me in the ship didn’t seem a particularly bad idea. At first. In fact there’d be advantages of it, I thought. For instance, Jeff liked to talk a weary lot ... and the imaginary Joe Hansen could spell me listening to him, while I projected a book or just harkened to the wheels going around in my own head against the faint patter of starlight on the hull. 
  I met Jeff first at a space-rodeo, oddly enough, but now the two of us were out on a servicing check of the orbital beacons and relays and rescue depots of the five planets of the Shaulan system. A completely routine job, its only drawback that it was lengthy. Our ship was an ionic jeep that looked like a fancy fountain pen, but was very roomy for three men—one of them imaginary. 
  I caught on to Jeff’s little mania by overhearing him talking to me. I’d be coming back from the head or stores or linear accelerator or my bunk, and I’d hear him yakking at me. It embarrassed me the first time, how to go back into the cabin when the other me was there. But I just swam in, and without any transition-strain at all that I could observe Jeff looked around at me, smiling sort of glaze-eyed, and said warmly, “Joe. My buddy Joe. Am I glad they paired us.” 
  If Jeff had a major fault, as opposed to a species of nuttiness, it was that he was strictly a speak-only-good, positive-thinking guy who always deferred to me. Even idolized me, if you can imagine that. He’d give me such fulsome praise I’d be irked ten times an orbit.
