How to Start Your Own Traditions for a Christmas Focused on Jesus

[@Ashleyohmy11]

Thanks for making this video! A few traditions we do that point to Jesus is I hide the wisemen from our nativity scene around the house every morning the kids have to find them. Slowly each day they get closer to where Jesus is set up. Also reading a chapter every day from December 1st till Christmas Eve from the book of Luke as Luke has exactly 24 chapters in it and it follows the life, death and resurrection of Christ Jesus.

I absolutely love all the knowledge and Biblical wisdom that you share!! This season is alllll about Christ and shouldn't be about a fictional character with reindeer and jingle bells. It is for our Heavenly Father that we are here. I loved your last video as well!!❤

Love the way you explained explaining that the parents are Santa. I want my children to be more Jesus centered than on gifts.

More thoughts I’ve had about discussing Santa with my children: 1 Cor. 11:1 Paul says “you are to imitate me as I imitate Christ.” Moreover in the gospels Jesus says he does what he sees the Father doing. St. Nicholas and anyone who acts as Santa is imitating the goodness and generosity of God, not trying to be Him or replace him in importance. But there are some people in the world who don’t know Jesus yet, so they will look for good people to “be Santa” because that’s the closest thing they know to God. So when we give to others-when we imitate Santa, we need to give glory to God to remind them where the goodness really comes from.

this is so wonderful! i’m a first time mom and baby boy is about to be 8 months so my husband and I were discussing what we want to implement in our family. we both don’t have family around and i would love to have our christmas just us as a new family, but for my husband it’s important to be around family so we are working on it!
