Clark, and Jessica Anderson talk about Christmas traditions—not just what we do, but why it still matters.From childhood memories to present-day family routines, we explore how traditions shape identity, build connection, and create moments that last far beyond gifts and decorations.More importantly, we ask a deeper question:👉 What happens when Christmas moves beyond church buildings and becomes part of everyday life at home?🎄 What We Talk About in This EpisodeFavorite Christmas traditions from past and presentWhy traditions matter more than giftsHow traditions create belonging across generationsCelebrating Christmas as a season, not just a dayMoving Christmas to a different date to protect family timeCreating sacred, uncommon moments at homeWhy tradition without truth is just a habitHow meaning turns tradition into something sacredExperiencing Christmas beyond-the-church wallsFrom pajamas and sleepovers to reading the Christmas story, communion, candlelight, and even neighborhood Santa sightings—this episode is a reminder that Christmas doesn’t have to be overwhelming to be meaningful.✨ A Beyond-the-Church ChallengeCreate at least one intentional Christmas moment this season:Read the Christmas storyLight a candleSay a prayerShare communionExpress gratitude togetherIt doesn’t have to be perfect—just intentional.💬 Join the ConversationWhat’s your favorite Christmas tradition?Which ones would you like to start or bring back?Let us know in the comments—we might borrow a few ideas. 😉👍 Like💬 Comment🔔 Subscribe📺 Share with someone who wants a Christmas that goes deeper than gifts.Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us at Beyond-the-Church.Let’s make it meaningful. 🎄✨Subscribe to our channel using this link: youtube.com/c/KerryAClark. *All images are used with permission from Unsplash.com. *Music is licensed and used with permission from Pond5.com.
