How do we celebrate Christmas in my home? We don't waste a ton of money on decorations. I may buy a poinsettia. We don't exchange Christmas gifts. We don't have that Santa silliness. We do have a nice dinner on Christmas. We do bake some cookies and make some candy although I have cut way back on how much I cook. I do play Christmas music, especially the Christmas hymns. What we really do is celebrate the fact that Jesus Christ left heaven and humbled himself to save us from sin. Our church has a candle light celebration where we read the Scriptures and sing Christmas hymns. That is it. Christmas is pleasant and stress free. We don't have to "remember to put Christ back into Christmas" because we put the world out.
