53. Celebrating the Holidays with Purpose with Steph
Welcome back to the kitchen table. Do you often feel that the true meaning of Christmas gets lost? Are you searching for ideas on traditions and ways you can keep Jesus at the forefront of this holiday season? Well, if so, you're in the right place. This week on WGBT, Bethany sits down with Stephanie Thurling, the co-founder of Raising Prayerful Kids.
Steph and Bethany sit down in a great conversation about how we can keep the true meaning alive as we approach the holiday season. They provide concrete ideas for activities and traditions that you can do with your own family. Often Jesus takes the backseat as gifts, decorations, and festivities are at the forefront of the holiday season.
They remind us that more is less during the Christmas season and that the best way to keep Jesus in our Christmas celebrations is to have him present in our daily lives. By reminding our children that Jesus is the real reason for the holiday season it can help your family to enjoy the holiday on a more meaningful level.
Whether you set aside time to pray every day, participate in advent, or have your own family tradition. It's important to remember that Jesus is the reason we celebrate.
