How fruitful was the last Christmas season for your family? Too often for parents there’s a lot of pressure coming at them from different directions that hurts their ability to keep Christmas focused on Christ; for it to be a season rich in family discipleship. Angie shares the great number of pressures on moms and gets transparent on challenges she’s experienced and Isaac shares a few as well. In the second half of this episode they give three practical keys to experiencing less pressure and encouraging a greater focus on Christ during Christmas. A powerful episode to help both the husband and wife work as a team to recalibrate the Christmas season.
Here are some of the main points covered in this episode:
- Pressures on moms and dads during the Christmas season
- There are good things that will be important to say no to so you can say yes to what matters more.
- If your marriage isn’t aligned on a great vision and plan for this season, you will fall to more of the cultural things that might get in the way of a focus on Christ
- The power of reading books to your children
- Angie shares personal stories of pressures on her in past
- What do you want your children to believe about Christmas? Do they actually believe that? Find out by asking them without leading them what they love about Christmas and what it’s about.
- Don’t miss this season’s incredible opportunity to point your family to Christ.
