@_melanniealexandra: ✨ CHRIST-CENTERED CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS ✨ Watch till the end to find out what we do instead of Elf on the Shelf 👀🎄 Every family celebrates Christmas differently — this is just how we keep Christ at the center. 🌟 Here are a few more traditions not mentioned in the video: 📖 Advent devotionals — reading, praying, and reflecting together. 🎄 Nativity setup — we leave the manger empty until Christmas morning. 🎶 Carols & worship nights — filling our home with songs of praise. ⛪️ Christmas service — worshipping together as a family. 📚 Books & movies — 24 Christmas Stories to Welcome Jesus, The Christmas Blessing, A Charlie Brown Christmas. ❤️ Light the World challenge — small daily acts of kindness and service. ✨ These moments keep the wonder alive — without losing sight of Who it’s all about. I made a full list of Christ-centered activities + book recs — comment “Christmas” and I’ll send it to you 🎁 What are your favorite Christ-centered traditions? I’d if we learn from each other, so mamas share away!!! Follow if this resonates with you 🥰 #biblicalparenting #christian #godlywoman #christianmom #christianmom
My parents only allowed us to ask for 3 things from Santa for Christmas because Jesus only received 3 gifts from the wisemen. I’m now doing the same thing with my children 💕

"Christmas trees" come from pagan worship. Many traditions associated with the holiday is taken from pagans. Don't take my word for it. Look up the history. Shalom

Personally I dont believe that Christmas is Jesus's birthday. However, since we dont know exactly when it is, I've come to the conclusion that if everyone has agreed to celebrate it on a specific day its much better than not celebrating it at all. Our Savior deserves the best birthday party ever 🥹❤️

When my daughter was 3 the Holy Spirit really convicted me. We were placing cookies out for Santa and she gasped and said where’s the cake for Jesus and I looked at her and was like you’re absolutely right! We stayed up late and made that cake! 🎂 have done it every year since!!

I love this! It’s honestly sad that earlier Christians came up with Christmas to celebrate the birth of Jesus and gather with loved ones just for people to make it about Santa years later.

Look for a colombian tradition called “novena de navidad” it is a sweet way of preparing ourselves for that date with prayers and in family!! It’s the story of Jesus birth in 8 days where family gathers together!!!

My grandma always made the grandkids dress up and reenact the nativity scene. So many laughs and fun that made it so memorable 🥰

During the advent season mom would put out a empty manager. My 3 siblings and I would spend advent doing kind deeds, and for each act of kindness we would be able to add straw to the empty manger to make a warm comfy spot for baby Jesus. On Christmas Day, mom would have baby Jesus in the manager. It was such a sweet tradition for us as kids!
