Celebrating Christmas as One New Man Believers

Are you struggling with what to do about Christmas?

In this episode of the Curt Landry Podcast, Rabbi Curt and Darrell Puckett discuss the tensions surrounding the celebration of Christmas, particularly its pagan roots. It’s become more widely understood that Jesus likely was not born on December 25, and some have felt it better not to associate with the day at all. This is understandable, and it remains an area of personal conviction.

Though the roots of Christmas are pagan, if your focus on the day is to celebrate and remember the coming of Jesus Messiah, your heart is not pagan. For many, it’s about redefining the symbols of Christmas – to see the tree as representing the one on which Yeshua died for our sins, and the gifts pointing to the Son of God as the ultimate gift to the world. Rabbi shares his background growing up, and his personal conviction to be a Hanukkah-Christmas Jewish person, keeping Jesus, the Light of the World, at the center of both celebrations.

Join Rabbi and Darrell as they discuss how Judeo-Christian celebrations are under attack, the liberty that Jesus provides, and the encouragement, no matter your conviction, to let the Light of the World shine through your life this season.
