Embrace a Christ-Centered Christmas in Your Marriage

The holiday season can feel like a whirlwind. Between shopping, gift exchanges, kids’ performances, family gatherings, last-minute Christmas cards, decorating, baking, family photos, and wrapping gifts—it’s overwhelming just listing it all!

Take a Step Back and Refocus

In the midst of this busyness, it’s easy to forget why we celebrate in the first place. Christmas is an incredible season to openly rejoice in the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We’re blessed to live in a place where we can joyfully proclaim, “Jesus was born—rejoice!” And what a beautiful thing it is to share this celebration with our spouse.

But do we truly rejoice, or do we get stuck in the endless to-do lists? Instead of racing through each day, let’s pause to savor the season with our loved ones. Take time to breathe, enjoy the festivities, and let God’s presence shine, especially in our marriages.

Imagine a Magical, Romantic Christmas

Picture a crisp, starry night. Snowflakes drift gently as you and your husband walk hand-in-hand, enjoying the holiday lights. He pulls you closer, kissing your forehead and smiling. You order hot chocolate, find a cozy spot, and just “be” in the moment. Smiling at each other, you both feel the warmth of God’s love and the joy of being together. Isn’t that what Christmas should feel like?

God created marriage for us to enjoy and experience His goodness. So, let’s not get lost in the holiday rush but stay focused on nurturing our relationship.

“So God created mankind in his own image… male and female he created them. God blessed them and said… ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth…’” Genesis 1:27-28
