Mark Dickey, Pastor Burt, and Pastor Josh banter about Christmas traditions, why Christians celebrate Christmas, and the historical context of Christmas in Christianity. “Early Christians didn\'t celebrate Christmas... it\'s funny to me that, early Christianity didn\'t have Christmas.” They reflect on how Christmas became central to modern faith practice, even if it wasn’t an original celebration.The Bridge Podcast Network is made possible by generous support from The Boardwalk Plaza Hotel and Victoria’s Restaurant on the boardwalk in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware - Open 7 days a week, year-round - Learn more at https://boardwalkplaza.comFeedback, or Show Ideas?
