Brownsburg, IN (PRWEB) September 19, 2004 -- Now there’s an easy and inexpensive way to give the same gift that the Three Wise Men brought to Jesus. Called The First Christmas Present, it’s a richly stained wooden box containing trace amounts of real gold, and the exotic spices frankincense and myrrh.
The origin of Christmas gift giving -
“The First Christmas Present brings us back in time to when the magi brought these symbolic and expensive gifts to Christ” said president of First Christmas Project, Dr. Bruce Thomas.
“When people give each other gifts at Christmas, they are carrying on a 2,000 year old tradition that celebrates the birth of Jesus. By returning to that first Christmas present we are reminded of Christ’s message and his mission here on earth.”
In a booklet included with the box, Dr. Thomas explains the significance and meaning of each of these three unique gifts with a fascinating historical look at the role of each gift in the cultural life at the time of Christ’s birth.
The idea for The First Christmas Present started in 2001 while Dr. Thomas and his wife were on a retreat. While in a store, Thomas saw frankincense and myrrh for the first time. He then had the idea that these precious gifts could be used to encourage others to redeem the reason for the season, celebrating the birth of Christ. Thus The First Christmas Present was born. In 2003, the company First Christmas Project was created.
The First Christmas Present has been featured in CBA Marketplace magazine, Christian Retailing, as well as Lo Mejor Para Ti. This unique gift can be found at selected stores nationwide, by visiting www.firstchristmaspresent.com or calling 317-850-3446.
Dr. Thomas has a wealth of interesting information about "We Three Kings", The Gift of the Magi, and the historic and spiritual meanings of myrrh, frankincense and gold. To schedule an interview with Dr. Thomas, founder of the First Christmas Project, call 317-850-3446.
