In this episode, I’m sharing the little-known reasons why Christians should celebrate Hanukkah and how this biblical feast connects to our faith today. Discover the powerful history of Hanukkah, the lessons we can learn from it, and why it’s a time of cleansing, renewal, and celebration of God’s faithfulness.

Why We Should Celebrate Hanukkah As Christians:

1. A Story of God’s Faithfulness Hanukkah recounts a time when God worked mightily during a perilous period in Jewish history. Under the reign of Alexander the Great, Jews were pressured to abandon their faith in exchange for Hellenistic traditions. Despite the challenges, God preserved His people, and this story serves as a reminder of His enduring love and power to turn the tide even in the darkest of times. This truth still applies to our lives today—God is just as involved in our lives now as He was in the lives of His people then.

2. Jesus Celebrated Hanukkah Jesus Himself celebrated Hanukkah, making it a meaningful observance for Christians. Hanukkah offers us a time to reflect on our own faith, teaching the next generation to trust in God and look for His presence in our lives. It’s a wonderful opportunity for children, even from a young age, to understand the importance of faith, fasting, and fasting practices.

3. A Time of Cleansing and Purifying Hanukkah is also a time to cleanse and purify our homes and hearts. It’s a reminder to remove distractions and worldly influences from our lives, similar to how we prepare spiritually for the Christmas season. In this episode, I share how we can use this time to refocus on God, strengthen our faith, and purify our celebrations.

How to Celebrate Hanukkah as a Christian: Start by deciding if you want to celebrate Hanukkah, whether it’s for one night or all eight. Make a festive meal, create your own customs, and dedicate the night to the Lord. Remember that our focus is on Yeshua, our deliverer, who is the ultimate reason for celebration. Hanukkah is a time to honor God’s deliverance, both for the Israelites and for us today.
