Christmas Traditions and the Light That Shines

In this Christmas episode of Inside Grace with Alan Wright, Pastor Alan is joined by Pastor Chris Lawson for a warm and lively conversation about the traditions that shape their families and churches each December. From favorite carols and candlelight services to quiet moments at home, Alan and Chris share the practices that help them slow down, remember the gospel, and keep Jesus at the center of Christmas.

Along the way, they reflect on why traditions really matter, how they can either point us to grace or distract us from it, and how to refresh old habits that have gone a little stale. Then they turn to John chapter 1 to ask a surprising question. Could this beloved passage about the Word and the light be the perfect Christmas text? Discover how John 1 pulls back the curtain on the miracle of the incarnation and invites us to see Christmas not just as a manger scene, but as God stepping into our darkness with unshakable light.
