Coming from the Jewish Faith, when Phillip Seeberg became a believing Christian in college, he wasn’t sure what to do for his first Christmas. None of his family was celebrating with him, and he didn’t quite yet feel at home in any local churches either.
Phillip reflects on what he learned from that experience, and shares why it’s important for churches to make the effort to include those who may be joining us for Christmas for the first time, often by themselves.
He also discusses his experience of observing Hanukkah as a kid, and why it’s a mistake to treat it like Judaism’s equivalent to Christmas.
