NO, Christmas Is Not A Pagan Holiday... | Live Free with Josh Howerton

About this sermon

In this episode of Live Free, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and Paul Cunningham uncover the real story behind Christmas! 🎄 From the origins of December 25th to the history of Christmas trees and the surprising truth about Santa Claus, we separate fact from myth and show how all these traditions point to the greatest gift ever, Jesus Christ. Learn why many common “holiday myths” aren’t what they seem, and how families today can celebrate with faith, fun, and purpose. Packed with history, biblical insights, and practical tips for your family, this episode will change the way you see the season. Perfect for anyone curious about Christian traditions, holiday history, or keeping Christ at the center of Christmas! 👍 Like, Comment, & Subscribe for more life-changing podcasts! 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss an episode! 📝 DISCIPLESHIP GUIDE Subscribe now to receive the discipleship guide directly in your inbox with each new episode.
