Show Notes

Some Christians celebrate Christmas religiously as a celebration of Jesus' birth, citing the importance of His appearance and the rare occasion of the culture acknowledging Christianity. Others celebrate as a strictly non-religious holiday, noting that Jesus was almost certainly not born on 12/25 and the Bible does not speak on the matter. Others eschew celebration altogether, each for varying reasons. In this episode: - What are the pros and cons of each belief system? - What is the difference in application between the family and the entire church? - How are churches to navigate differing opinions on the matter?
