  I’m a middle aged Hispanic woman and I have nothing in common with you guys, except Jesus, and you all have such an innocent, open spirit and it warms my heart to see young men that love our Lord.

  Rather than debating if something is pagan or not, the real question should be "Is it Biblical?"

  I used to think EXACTLY this. "I'll be happy if..or when..." Nope. Only Christ can give you the fulfillment we all chase.

  Happiness is temporary....Joy in Christ is eternal. +++

  Life is a happiness roller coaster. Up and down. Knowing Christ is eternal joy and peace no matter if you’re going up or down.

  In a season of prayer and fasting 8 years ago, God made it clear i was not to partake in the holy days prescribed by culture anymore. I love my family and friends who do but after God speaks a clear word and shows you something in His word and by His Spirit, to disobey would be far greater an offense than to be considered a weirdo by people!

  I was taught as a child that the birth of Christ was set up to be celebrated during the Jewish celebrations of the Festival of Lights because Jesus is the light of the world.

  I love the praying at the end. I legit stop what I'm doing and bow my head during the prayer and Amen with y'all. Much love.

  As someone with deep depression from childhood abuse and neglect that has resisted every treatment, this episode felt like a kick in the crotch because I haven't known joy or happiness in a long time.  I want that corn fed, bright eyed confidence, joy and purpose.  I felt such a thunder clap of shame  hearing how far I fall short.  I love the podcast, but man did this one hurt and overwhelm.  Prayers are welcome because I need help.  Keep up the good work.

  I have 2 issues with Christmas...<br><br>1 - why do we trick our children to believe Santa Clause (who is unseen / not real) brings them gifts and them we tell them as they get older they find out he isn&apos;t real, when our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (who is unseen and real) Does this not confuse them?<br><br><br>2 - The Bible instructs us not to conform/love the things of this world. Christmas is not biblical, so is something the world made. <br><br>I have seen Luciferians celebrate Christmas, such as the tree in Rockefeller plaza. That man did not love Christ.
