Our population has heard the Christmas story so many times that all too often the facts are entirely misconstrued. Chuck Swindoll debunks some of those common notions in a message based entirely on the biblical record.

Listen in to learn how Jesus passed the test and let His example give you wisdom and strength for those times when Satan puts you to the test.
