I’ve been thinking about Christmas traditions which made me think, “Which Christmas traditions honor and point to Jesus?” I grew up in a home of unbelievers, so although our traditions were not bad, they didn’t point to Jesus. My husband’s family was a godly family that had some Jesus honoring Christmas traditions. We have adopted most of them into our family. I wonder how many others want to honor Jesus at Christmas, but don’t know how because they weren’t raised in a home that honored Jesus at Christmas.
We have two traditions that we do before we ever open a single present. We read the Christmas story (Luke 2:1-20) and usually the story about the wise men (Matthew 2:1-12) and then we sing “Happy Birthday.”
What does your family do to honor Jesus at Christmas?
