Christmas Culture

Christmas is more than just a day. It’s music, movies, plays and scripture. It’s is lights and decorations and stories. It’s everything.

Christmas Traditions

We all put up Christmas trees. Why do we do that? We hang Christmas lights? What do they mean? It’s the one time of year we eat candy canes. What’s up with that?

Christmas Movies

Quick, what’s your favorite Christmas movie? Ask ten people and you’ll likely get ten different answers. Movies are such a big part of our Christmas that we can quote parts of them year round and literally everyone knows what we are talking about.

Christmas Music

Did you know that we still enthusiastically sing Christmas music that is now over 500 years old? Try that with any other holiday. Even more astonishing is that there is no end to the Christmas music being created.
