For those of you who watched the Church Christmas broadcast/concert last night, and heard President Monson mention some great Christmas stories: I haven't read "The Mansion" by Henry Van Dyke (one of the stories summarized by Pres. Monson in his talk). I found it is available from Deseret Book for about $13, or you can read it for free online at pagebypagebooks.com. Here is the link:

I'll be reading it soon!

I got the Kindle version of the Mansion for free, read it. Very good, made me think of the verse about Great for a plaque to hang on your wall. And Matthew 6:20-21
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
It is a good reminder of where we need to put our efforts.
