Just as we love to lavish gifts on our children at Christmas, even when they don’t deserve it, so does our Father lavish his undeserved grace on us—all year long.

When we feel the pressure to “crush it” at Christmas, we can lift our eyes to the One whose perfect performance is our resting place.

Woven into the themes of our favorite Christmas movies, we find threads of a better gospel story: a true Love who comes to bring us salvation and a forever happily-ever-after.

We can help keep Christ at the center of our celebrations this Christmas season by prioritizing contentment, connection, and contemplation with our families.

As we build family cultures centered around the Word and love for one another, our homes become a foretaste of heavenly joys.

As we look to Jesus, we grow in contentment, gratitude, and peace—regardless of our circumstances.

Through the eyes of our children, we can learn to experience afresh the delights of our God and the good world he has made.

When we’re overwhelmed by all we think we “should” do this holiday season, we can instead choose to remember, re-prioritize, and remove in order to keep our eyes on Christ.

In our anguish over a child’s diagnosis, we can prayerfully cast ourselves on the God who is our Creator, Father, Sustainer, omnipresent Guide, and Savior.

The gospel gives us much freedom with our family’s lifestyle choices but also protects us from placing too much emphasis on them.

When our focus is pursuing God’s will—loving him and loving others—we can lay down our worries about our work choices. He will provide everything that we need.
