325: 2 Christmas Traditions for Christians Who Want To Bring Jesus Into The Season

In this Christmas episode, I’m sharing two of our family’s favorite faith-centered traditions (that are simple to execute on and have brought a lot of sweetness and meaning into our December). With little ones at home, I’ve learned that the best traditions don’t need to be complicated to make a big impact, and these are ones my kids look forward to all year long.

To see pictures of our family traditions, make sure to check out the blog post for this week's episode: https://elizabethmccravy.com/325 

I talk about how these traditions started for us, what they’ve looked like with kids at different ages, and why they’ve become such a grounding part of our holiday season. I also share a new rhythm we’re adding this year as we head into Advent (something I’ve tried versions of in the past but am finally ready to jump into more intentionally).

If you’re looking for faith-centered ideas that feel doable, gentle, and meaningful (especially with toddlers or preschoolers), I think you’ll enjoy this one. And if you try any of these traditions in your own home, I’d love to hear how they unfold for you.
