Summary
It's easy to get wrapped up in the traditions of Christmas, but are we forgetting what Christmas is truly about? It's not about Santa, presents, or gift giving - it's about Christ! Our dear friend Eric Metaxas joins us to discuss the war on Christmas and how we can return to the holidays roots this year. We discuss the miracle of Christmas and how despite society's secularization of this holiday, we can return to Christ this Christmas.
