This is a radio show called Believe Together, discussing various topics related to Christmas and faith. They play a version of the song "The Angel Gabriel" and discuss the significance of the angel Gabriel in the Christmas story. They also talk about a competition for young choristers and play the winning performances. They have a quiz about winter and talk about the importance of family during the Christmas season. They end with a reflection on the meaning of Christmas and a song called "God of the Poor." Welcome to Believe Together, a Churches Together in Kingcham Saltford production for KTCRFM 105.8 and online. The angel Gabriel from heaven came, His wings adrift in glorious iron flames, O help that he, a lowly man, may reign, Most highly favoured lady, Gloria! For now and evermore, O Jesus, come and lead me, Thy Son shall be my Lord, my Savior's God, Most highly favoured lady, Gloria! Then gentle Mary, meekly bowed her head, To me the early king's conscious eye said, My soul shall lord and magnify this holy name, Most highly favoured lady, Gloria! Of her Emmanuel the Christ was born, On Bethlehem a tree was born, And Christians all shall bow to the man who came, Most highly favoured lady, Gloria! Well, Peter here again. I hope you enjoyed that version of the angel Gabriel, brought to us by all angels. Why are we playing the angel Gabriel? Well, it's... Yes, we're in the season of Advent, and that leads up to Christmas. And of course, the Christmas story began with the angel Gabriel going to Mary. So, hello, I'm Jenny, and yes, we are here in this Advent season. What have we got for you today? Well, many of the regular features, of course, like the Just for Fun quiz. Now, what else have we got, Peter? Well, we've got some recordings from last Sunday's Songs of Praise, which was a competition for the Young Chorister of the Year. It had two categories, junior and senior, and we're going to play you the winners of both categories. They are certainly very talented singers. So, without further ado, let's listen to the junior one. What I've done is I've edited out bits of the program. Just see what you think. Just sit back and enjoy this. What advice do you have for our finalists? Ken, let's start with you. Enjoy this moment of worship and giving glory to God through song. Thank you very much, Ken. Going first is 12-year-old Belinda from Wales. Here's a reminder of what she sang in the semi-final. The Lord bless you and keep you. You were magnificent. There's a purity in your voice, but also warmth. You delivered that with absolute confidence. I love the top of the voice. It rings like a bell, especially in this room. It's gorgeous. For the final, Belinda has chosen to sing A Little Road to Bethlehem. As I walked down the road at set of sun, the lambs are coming homeward one by one. I heard a sheep bell softly calling them along the little road to Bethlehem. Beside an open door as I drew nigh, I heard sweet Mary sing a lullaby. She sang about thy land at close of day and rocked her toy making among the hay. Across the air the silver sheep bell rang. The lambs are coming home, sweet Mary sang. You're silver, you're silver and shining in the sky. So sleep my little king, go lullaby. As I walked down the road at set of sun, the lambs are coming homeward one by one. I heard a sheep bell softly calling them along the little road to Bethlehem. How did it go? It went really well. Yeah? Yeah. Are you going to breathe? Yes. Breathe. Yes. Did you enjoy yourself? I absolutely loved it. I'm so pleased. I was just like, oh my gosh, I'm standing here in Young Chorister of the Year. It was the final. It's amazing. And what would it mean for you to win? It would be the most special thing in the whole entire world. And now it's time for this week's quiz. Over to you Celia. Now that according to the meteorologist we are in winter, the quiz today is about, you guessed it, winter. Can you name three British animals that hibernate through winter? Thank you again Celia. Well I'm sure I should better think of three, but I don't think I can. Never mind Peter. Now my leprosy mission calendar for December has a verse from the book of Romans and it says, Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace. So let's have a song about joy and peace. Peace Wonderful Peace by the Bagel Brothers. Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight Rose a melody sweeter than song In celestial ice strains it unceasingly falls For my soul like an infinite call Peace, peace, wonderful peace Coming down from the Father above Sweep over my spirit forever I pray In fathomless billows of love I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace Resting sweetly in Jesus' control For I'm kept from all danger by night and by day And His glory is flooding my soul Peace, peace, wonderful peace Coming down from the Father above Sweep over my spirit forever I pray In fathomless billows of love A soul, are you here with us? Come put your rest Marching down the rough pathway of time May Jesus your friend e'er the shadows grow dark O accept this sweet Jesus' love Peace, peace, wonderful peace Coming down from the Father above Sweep over my spirit forever I pray In fathomless billows of love And now over to Celia for the second question for the Just for Fun quiz Question two How much money can a policeman fine a driver for driving with snow on the car in the United Kingdom? Is it £30, £60 or £90? Well, Celia, I had no idea you could be fined for having snow on your car You'd better watch out, Peter Indeed, I'd better make sure I'm carrying a scraper with me all the time Ken Plant is back with a forkful a week And what are we going to say today? Hello, my name is Ken Plant And I'm a licensed lay minister in St Mary's, Salford I'll be giving two epilogues this month, this Christmas month Christmas is a time for families Well, that's what we hear so often, isn't it? But who says so? Where does the idea come from? We've become used to Christmas being hijacked by people who want to make money out of it and thus buy masses of gaudy decorations and lights to replace that star, they say celebrate by eating huge amounts of expensive unhealthy food and don't forget the booze and reflect those gifts from the wise men by spending lots of money on enormous numbers of unnecessary and sometimes unwanted gifts OK, so that might sound like grumpy old Scrooge talking and it possibly is but what's the basis of the idea that Christmas is a time for families? Because some families respond to it by family members uprooting themselves and going to spend time with other family members and we know that doesn't always work out well because some families function better when they don't have to spend protracted lengths of time together they love each other, care about each other but find each other's company just a little bit irksome and this isn't surprising really, is it? We're all different and as we live our individual lives we grow up and we develop with different ways of thinking and doing things maybe Christmas as a family time is an opportunity to let our mutual love practice tolerance and acceptance of those differences who knows but in a wider sphere Christmas is all about the birth of a baby and while there are lots of kinds of family units this gives us the basic stereotype of the commonest sort of family a mummy, a daddy and a child this family experienced what it was to depend on the hospitality of strangers and they were placed in that position of needing others' generosity by the political powers of their day and that's the experience of many, many families worldwide today, isn't it? including in our own country this family had to leave their home, their security to move into exile in an unknown and probably unwelcoming country because of violence and killing brought about by the political ambitions of those in authority in their own country and how familiar is that to us as we listen to the news today Jesus grew up knowing about the warmth of a loving family he also knew what losing the father figure in that home was like in fact, he knew about all the things that we experience in this life maybe Christmas is a time to remember families to pray for families those living in comfort those struggling those with nowhere to live those in war-torn areas those in refugee camps and those who have been split up and are living in the equivalent of prison as a result of trying to find somewhere where they will be welcome and where they will be safe through Jesus' experience God knows and understands when so often politicians and authorities don't and God cares beauty for brokenness hope for despair Lord, in the suffering this is our prayer bread for the children justice, joy, peace sunrise to sunset your kingdom increase shelter for fragile lives cure for their ills work for the craftsmen trade for their skills land for the dispossessed rights for the weak voices to plead the cause of those who can't speak God of the poor friend of the weak give us compassion, we pray melt our cold hearts and tears for life's sake come change our love from a spark to a flame rescues from cruel wars havens from fear cities for sanctuary freedoms to share peace to the killing field scorched earth to clean Christ for the rich and end his cross for the plain God of the poor friend of the weak give us compassion, we pray melt our cold hearts and tears for life's sake come change our love from a spark to a flame rest for the ravaged earth oceans and streams plundered and poisoned our future and dreams Lord, in our madness carelessness grieves make us content with the things that we need God of the poor friend of the weak give us compassion, we pray melt our cold hearts and tears for life's sake come change our love from a spark to a flame lighten our darkness breathe on this flame until your justice burns brightly again unto the nation Lord of your way seek your salvation and bring you your praise God of the poor friend of the weak give us compassion, we pray melt our cold hearts and tears for life's sake come change our love from a spark to a flame God of the poor friend of the weak give us compassion, we pray melt our cold hearts and tears for life's sake come change our love from a spark to a flame Thank you, Ken, for that thought for the week, and for choosing that song, God of the Poor, or it's sometimes called Beauty for Brokenness, sung by Graham Kendrick. One of our good friends, David Brasington, produces a very different show on this radio station. Let's hear him tell you all about it. Hi, I'm Dave Brasington, and it's my pleasure to present the Country Hour on KTCR 105.8 FM. You will hear classic country hits, old and new, plus news on local clubs and gigs. I'm looking forward to spending this hour with you. Until then, keep it country. You're listening to Believe Together, a Churches Together and KCM and Salford production for KTCR FM 105.8 and online. And now, time for the final question for the Just For Fun quiz. Over to Celia. Last question. Which of the following is the name of a play by William Shakespeare? Is it The Story of the Winter, A Tale of the Winter, or The Winter's Tale? Well, I do know the answer to that one. Thank you, Celia. And now for some news headlines. Archbishop of Canterbury urges immediate peace and end to violence in Sudan after UN mission withdrawal. Nearly a quarter of young Brits open to banning the Bible if it includes hate speech. No Christmas tree in Bethlehem as holiday pared down over Gaza war. King Charles is an influencer, but church can make a difference on climate, says Christian campaigner. We must forgive pandemic politicians, says Christian care leader. President Jimmy Carter's wife, Rosalind, who inspired the world through her faith, dies at 96. Clergy ranked in top 20 jobs most exposed to AI, that's artificial intelligence, but expert says don't panic. Survey. 60% of young Christians think Buddha, Muhammad, also ways of salvation. Just one in five Christians comfortable sharing faith with marginalised people. How could I ever complain again? Jungle contestant Spears shares Catholic testimony with campmates after nearly losing her daughter. Premier bringing more joy to the world this Christmas with new radio station. Worship leader wows judges on TV show The Voice UK. Lauren Daigle crowned Billboard's Christian Artist of the Year. Royal Mail launched singing post boxes in Glasgow to spread festive cheer. Now let's sit back and relax and enjoy some beautiful singing again from last Sunday's Songs of Praise as we listen to the winner of the senior category. Now it's the turn of our seniors and singing first is 14 year old Natalie from Derbyshire. Here's a reminder of what she sang last week. Natalie's got it, whatever it is. The words really came alive and off the page. Singing the Virgin's slumber song is Natalie. Amid the roses Mary sings and walks her Jesus child. While amid the trees her eyes are pleased, so whole and mild. And soft and sweetly sings a bird upon the bough. God keep thee, dear one, slumber now. Happy is thy laughter, lowly is thy silent rest. Lay thy head in slumber, fondly on thy mother's breast. God keep thee, dear one, slumber now. I really enjoyed that. Oh, I'm thrilled. How did you feel when you were out there? It was nervous to start with, but then I think when the music kind of started, it was just like, oh, and I kind of just enjoyed it then. How would it feel to win? It would feel amazing, but I am completely happy with getting to the finals and I'm so happy for whoever wins because everyone's amazing. Everyone deserves it. What a lovely attitude. Well done. Thank you. Natalie. How do you feel? Amazing. I didn't expect this for a minute, like at all. I'm like gobsmacked. What comes across, and I think everyone here will agree, is that you obviously absolutely love singing. Yeah, that is true. I think just in this amazing place as well, it's just been an absolute joy to sing here. I've just had the best time ever. Last week, I said that if you were in the Netherlands now, you might have already exchanged Christmas presents. And I said we'd say a bit more about this today. Well, I have Blaise with me now. Blaise isn't Dutch, but I think she knows a bit about some of the Dutch Christmas customs. So, this is a story that is told and acted out in the Netherlands each year. Sinterklaas, named derived from a real person, St. Nicholas, comes from Spain in a boat and lands at a different Dutch town each year. Bit late telling you about that, as it's on the first Saturday after the 11th of November. So, this year, it would have been Saturday the 18th of November. He's dressed as the original St. Nicholas might have been dressed. St. Nicholas was a Greek Orthodox bishop. So, the Sinterklaas is dressed in red, carrying a crozier, like a shepherd's crook. And he'd also have a big white beard. The Dutch also put up their Christmas trees at this time. Then Sinterklaas on a white horse and his assistants go round the streets, giving out sweets. And also, the assistants go round to hospitals, schools and other buildings to give them out. Dutch children don't get their Christmas presents on Christmas Day. They get them on the 5th of December, when Sinterklaas, or one of his assistants, is supposed to put sweets into a shoe that each child puts out in their home. There may be a chocolate letter, covered in foil. The initial of the child's name put in the shoe, or some gold foil covered chocolate coins. Why chocolate coins? That comes from the story of St. Nicholas helping out a poor family. A father had three daughters and he didn't have enough money to give them a dowry to get married. So, St. Nicholas gave them a big sack of coins. So then they would have enough money to get a dowry themselves. Presents are usually exchanged in the Netherlands at this time, on the 5th of December. Thank you, Blaise. That's really interesting. Of course, in England, we don't usually exchange presents until Christmas Day, do we? Mind you, it seems like a good idea to me, exchanging presents before Christmas Day itself. As then, there'd be more time on that day to do other things, wouldn't there? Possibly even using or playing with some of the presents that have previously been exchanged. So, I wonder if you'd like to observe the Dutch tradition of exchanging presents on 5th of December. In England, people put up their decorations and Christmas trees at all sorts of times before Christmas Day. I've seen a lot up already in November this year. But in the Christian calendar, the 1st of December signals the beginning of Advent, when we remember not only Jesus' first coming to earth as a baby, but also the time when Jesus will return to earth at his second coming. Well, nearer to Christmas Day, perhaps we'll let you know what happens later in December in the Netherlands to celebrate Christmas. And here is some of a song that children sing and also is played a lot as Sinterklaas comes on the boat to one of the seaside towns in the Netherlands. Of course, it's in Dutch. Zie Gins komt het stoomboot uit Spanje weer aan Hij brengt ons Sint-Nicolaas, ik zie hem al staan Hoe huppelt zijn paardje en hij komt bij neer Hoe vaaien de windpals al heen en alweer Piet staat te

And the name of the play by William Shakespeare is The Winter's Tale So wrap up and keep warm this winter Thank you Celia, yes Well, I know that hedgehogs hibernate I didn't really think about dormice and bats So I didn't know about them And as for the penalty points and money The fine, if you've got snow on your car I think I'd better read my highway code again I did buy a new one fairly recently Now, £60 and three penalty points Well yes, let's make sure we certainly keep the windscreen clear If we do get snow here And then The Winter's Tale Yes, I knew that answer Although I don't think I've actually read that Shakespeare story I'm not really into Shakespeare, I have to confess Even though of course we had to do it at school Thank you Celia for those questions Now we've mentioned it before But this is our last chance To remind everybody about the very special carol service Coming up at St Mary's Church in Timsbury 3pm Sunday coming up That's the 10th isn't it I think What is happening?
