That's right. There are 12 days of Christmas, not just today. In the secular world, Christmas is just one day built around selling and giving gifts, but there is much more to it than that. I've never been a fan of "Happy holidays." That greeting feels to me like you're trying to avoid offending someone. These days, we need a message that is much more filled with hope. The proclamation in both Christmas and Hanukkah is that light will overcome darkness. And the Christian message is that God and the utmost humility enters the hardship of our lives and walks with us on our daily journey as difficult as it may be. So I hope you will love today with family and friends. And when today is over, know that Christmas has just begun.
From all of us at Church Health, Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah. This is Dr. Scott Morris for Church Health.
