What is a holiday?
The word holiday comes from the words “holy day.” Parents can seize opportunities all around them for recognizing Christmas as a holy holiday.
December offers plenty of occasions for talking about the Lord.
The book of Deuteronomy shows a model for approaching special seasons. We can remember what God did in the past, feast on good, rich foods, and offer spiritual sacrifices. We can worship together with fellow believers and give and share with other people.
These ancient Jewish instructions speak to any modern father-figures who want to influence their families for the Lord. We too can learn from the book of Deuteronomy and apply its words in principle to our lives. As we plan for Christmas, let’s intentionally lead others to Jesus.
