Merry Christmas from all of us here at Exponent!

#LightTheWorld and rejoice! It’s almost Christmas! Here’s our Christmas playlist.

She who has the most stuff does not #LightTheWorld more! Let’s avoid Christmas materialism.

#LightTheWorld this Christmas by feeding the hungry. Here’s another way to think of the miracle of the loaves and fishes.

“I want to see myself reflected in Her divinity, to wrap myself in Her smooth blue fabric, to draw on Her endless wisdom and goodness.” #LightTheWorld

#LightTheWorld this Christmas by following the example of Christ.
