Christmas Traditions: Then and Now with Dr. Robert Whitehead

In this episode, Dr. Robert Whitehead, engages in a thought-provoking conversation about Christmas traditions, the distinction between sacred and secular elements, and the importance of inclusivity in the Nativity story. We discuss various topics, including the origins of Christmas trees and the less idyllic aspects of the Nativity story. We discuss how both elements of sacred and secular can coexist and contribute to the holiday's meaning and acknowledge that the Nativity story includes challenging and uncomfortable aspects.
