Summary

Today we're having a theological discussion on how Christians should treat Santa Claus. While it's not a salvation issue, there are some verses in the Bible that can give us guidance on how to view the secular holiday icon. We also consider what the 19th-century theologian Charles Spurgeon had to say about the secular side of Christmas and the fact that there actually is a real, omniscient gift-giver, and His name isn't Santa Claus. --- Today's Sponsors: Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
