Unwrapping the True Spirit of Christmas: A Celebration Beyond Traditions

Love is the best answer, because the Bible says love is the greatest gift of them all.
Christmas is often a whirlwind of last-minute shopping, family gatherings, and festive lights. But have you ever paused to consider the deeper meaning behind this holiday? In this episode of 'AbbaDaddy House Girls Speak Out', hosts Annette Smith and Myrna Thatcher invite you to a special celebration—a birthday party for Jesus. They dive into questions that many might ponder but rarely discuss openly. Is December 25th really Jesus' birthday?
Do Christmas traditions have pagan roots, and if so, should Christians still celebrate it? And what about Santa—does he get an invite to this Royal Birthday Party? Annette and Myrna don't shy away from these tough questions. Instead, they approach them with a blend of curiosity and reverence, offering listeners a chance to reflect on their own holiday practices.
They emphasize that Christmas is more than just a season of material gifts; it's about the love and kindness we share with one another. As Myrna puts it, 'Love is the best answer, because the Bible says love is the greatest gift of them all'. Annette echoes this sentiment, reminding us that 'When we celebrate Christmas, we're celebrating the fact that God came down to earth to be with us'.
This episode also touches on a sobering reality: why are depression and suicide rates higher during this supposedly joyous time of year? The hosts offer insights and compassionate advice for those who find the holidays challenging. So, if you're looking to reconnect with the true essence of Christmas, tune in. Annette and Myrna's heartfelt conversation will inspire you to celebrate with joy, gratitude, and a renewed focus on love.
