Tips for adding Christ into Traditional Christmas Activities
If you feel overwhelmed by this list and just aren’t sure you have time to look or print or whatever else, have no fear, you can do a few simple things that focus on Jesus right in the middle of your already planned holiday activities.
- Add a Christmas tract or scripture into the Christmas cards you give to family, friends, and neighbors.
- Read the Christmas story before opening presents or anything else on Christmas morning.
- When you look at Christmas lights, talk about how Jesus in the light of the world.
- Turn on Christ-centered holiday music in the background when you bake or while in the car.
- Pray and be intentional about making a mental shift to keep Christmas simple and focused on Christ. Don’t put emphasis on gifts, busyness, decorations, or traditions. Remind yourself and your family often what you are celebrating.

These are such great ideas! Thanks for putting them all in one place!
