Happy Holidays

from Messages · host Southridge Community Church

Christmas is seen as a time of joy and wonder, sacredness and significance.

What SHOULD we say? What CAN we say? What CAN’T we say? And most of all, how do we avoid the blow up at Christmas dinner that is anything but “merry” or “happy”? But what if we could go beyond the controversy? What if we could debunk the debate? What if we could actually discover the “holy” in the “holiday?”
