As we get older, Christmas changes—and so do we. In this episode, we talk about what it means to both grow up and grow into Christmas: how the season shifts from childhood excitement to something deeper, more reflective, and sometimes more complicated. We kick things off with a Christmas outfit “Make Me Laugh” segment and then dive into the questions that shape how we experience the holiday now.

We explore which Christmas characters we relate to, how our view of the season has matured, and what we’ve learned this year that affects the way we’ll approach Christmas. We even wrestle with what celebrating Jesus’ birth might look like if He were physically here today—and what “peace on earth, goodwill to men” actually means in a divided world.

It’s fun, honest, and full of the kind of conversation that helps us rediscover why Christmas still matters.

In this episode, we talk about gratitude in a way that actually feels real. Not the cheesy holiday version—real, everyday gratitude that wrestles with pain, faith, frustration, and hope. We walk through questions about how thankfulness shapes our relationship with God, how it forms our character, and why Scripture calls us to “give thanks in all circumstances.” We also get practical about habits that help us live with a grateful heart.

If you’ve ever struggled to stay thankful in real life, this conversation is for you.

Tonight we’re taking a real, honest look at gratitude and contentment—what they are, why they matter, and how they shape the way we see our lives. We’ll explore the difference between thanking God for what He’s done and learning to trust Him with where we are right now.

We’ll talk about gratitude in hard seasons, shifting our focus from what’s missing to what’s meaningful, and how these practices can deepen our relationship with God. You’ll also have a chance to fill out a prayer card so we can walk with you and pray over whatever you’re carrying.

This is a night to slow down, reflect, and reset our hearts on the God whose love and presence never leave us.
