Rethinking Christmas Allmomdoes Ultimately, thinking biblically about christmas is aligning our perspective with who jesus is and what he came to accomplish. while we may not know his birthday, we do know his mission: to save, redeem, and draw people to himself. when the world talks about jesus—even imperfectly—we must engage. Traditions vary dramatically from place to place, shaped by landscape, history, values and climate. while many nations do exchange gifts, the rituals around them differ enormously. The christmas season arrives each year like a quiet invitation rather than a demand. long before the lights are taken down or the music fades, something deeper begins stirring—an inner awareness that time itself is asking us to move differently.
