About this sermon

Charles Dickens and Washington Irving were two of the most influential creatives that helped invent and shape the modern notions of Christmas and some of its enduring secular mythology. In this clip, taken from Daniel Kolenda's podcast "Off the Record" Daniel discuss these two figures as part of a larger discussion on the origins of Christmas.
