A Christian Defense for the Celebration of Christmas

by Dale Partridge

For some, it may be shocking to find out that some Christians refuse to celebrate Christmas. However, it’s true. Some Christians believe that Christmas is rooted in paganism and, therefore, have chosen to abstain as an act of personal holiness.

While our ministry celebrates the freedom Christians have in Christ to make such a choice, we also believe in the call to reason with one another in love. In this episode, pastor Dale Partridge looks at the Doctrine of Days, the history of the early church, and the Bible to present three reasons Christians should consider celebrating and commemorating the incarnation of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
