Discover how Saint Boniface's bold act of cutting down Thor's Oak in 723 AD revolutionized medieval Europe, transforming pagan fear into Christian love. This pivotal moment marked Christianity's triumph not through force, but through a profound spiritual shift in how people viewed divine power.

We have achieved a curious feat in our modern world: we've managed to forget the most fundamental aspect of thanksgiving - to whom we are giving it. We remember the turkey but forget the God who made both turkeys and hunger; we remember the feast but forget the Host; we remember to say "thank you" but carefully forget to whom we say it.

In our upside-down world, shadows are counted more substantial than sunlight, and darkness more real than dawn. Yet Christianity offers a startling reversal: a divine madness that transforms the darkest night into the brightest day, where even the deepest shadows bow before the light.
