Benji is worried about his daddy, who is fighting a war in another part of the world. He turns to Santa, believing that he has an inside track to Jesus, for the best Christmas gift he could ask for. Though most people are familiar with the sacrifices that soldiers make, Baker asks listeners to remember the children left behind, who often do not understand where their parents are or what they are doing. Benji's Christmas Letter seeks to comfort children of military families during trying times, for there is nothing more important to a child then the security and love they receive from their mother or father, especially at Christmas. Inspired by events from her life, Andrea Baker invites listeners to believe in miracles. What better Christmas gift could a child ask for than the safe return of a parent from war?
