Christmas can get so busy—programs, presents, parties—that we forget why we celebrate. How do we help our whole family focus on the miracle of Jesus’s birth? Start simple. Start the Christmas season off by reading Luke 2 together before you put up the tree, lights, or decorations—certainly before opening gifts. Ask your kids what it means that, “The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us.” Talk about how amazing it is that the Creator of the universe came as a baby…to save us. Let your kids see your awe and gratitude. When Jesus is at the center of our celebration, our family sees Christmas isn’t just about what’s under the tree, but Who was born in the manger.
It’s a miracle!
