When others may be upset about the timing and the push for sales and commercialism overshadowing the celebration of Christmas, Nashville Christian Country artist Kevin Kappler is all right with it when it comes to Christmas being pushed a little early.  In fact, Kevin had his Christmas decorations up in October. Why?  Kevin says the longer his decorations are up, the longer he can celebrate the birth of His Savior, the most important holiday of all.

Kevin absolutely loves Christmas!  His memories take him back to a little mobile home on Furnace Creek, when he was a young boy.  He even wrote a song about country living there.  Kevin’s original songs about his childhood and the simplicity of those days are relatable to everyone who has great memories of growing up and the warmth of Christmases past.

“I remember my dad having a reel to reel recorder he brought out every year with the Christmas decorations.  He played Christmas music throughout the holidays.  We watched my two favorite Christmas movies every year, ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ and ‘It’s a Wonderful Life.’  I still watch those with my family annually.  Anyone who knows me knows I love drinking McAllister’s tea, watching ‘COPS’, and collecting old vinyl Christmas LPs that remind me of my dad playing Christmas music,” shares Kevin.

One of Kevin’s most prized gifts will always be dear to his heart.  A man at Kevin’s church in Farmington, Missouri, had a sick father who lived in St. Louis.  Kevin made the one-hour trip to visit the man’s father in his illness and spent time with him.  Later, when the man passed away, he left a message to give Kevin his original Nat King Cole vinyl Christmas LP.  Though Kevin was not expecting anything for the visit, it meant so much that he was remembered with  such a special item.
