On behalf of my fellow Christians, I'd like to apologize to the secular culture for our behavior at Christmas.

Every year we have the best tree ever. Really. It is a beautiful tradition; I decorate to the glory of God.

We only have one "Devotional of the Day" spot, after all, and that's just not enough space...

As we celebrate the ultimate gift of the freedom we have in Christ, it's healthy to explore why we feel like we're in bondage in other areas.

Celebrating Advent helps families prepare for the coming of Christ. But where do Advent traditions come from?

Check out these low-cost and free ways to commemorate the reason for the season.

He arrives each holy season to heal you. To set you free. To bring you deep joy...

"On Christmas Eve, Dad returned without the deer he had hoped to shoot. There was no money for gas, for food or anything else..."

We know that we are not the One we are waiting for, because if we were there would be not hope at all.

The Christmas Note tugs on every heartstring. Even the most Scrooge-like reader will blink back tears on more than one occasion.

Christmas can be "the most wonderful time of the year" or it can be the saddest season of all. Fortunately, the choice is up to us.

You and I can be incredibly burdened right during the season when we should be the most joyful!

If you are looking for a simple yet effective family Advent activity, take a moment to consider the Jesse Tree.

Comic adventure turns into a heartfelt story about traditions, the meanings behind them and the relationships at their core.

When the government forces Scrooge to do what it thinks proper, it removes his ability to freely repent and do what is good himself.

My wondering at the impact of a leaner Christmas is not a sarcastic wondering. Does anything get lost if our material giving ratchets down?

As kids head to college or marry and begin families, sometimes the holidays can become a source of stress or tension for the family.

Most of us out there might not verbally admit it, but don’t we all want a “perfect” Christmas?

The year I found a bag full of wrapped presents hidden four days after Christmas, I knew we were going overboard with the gift-giving...

Five pastors. Five congregations. And one radically different approach to Christmas that blessed the nations.
