Hello friends!! And welcome back to another episode of Unpolished Faith. This Christmas season, we’re stripping away the tinsel and glitter to get real about the heart of the holiday. 12 Days of Unpolished Christmas is a special series designed to help you pause, reflect, and rediscover the beauty of Jesus in the midst of the chaos. Each day, we’ll dive into meaningful conversations and devotionals that bring an authentic perspective to the Christmas story—unpacking themes like worship, wonder, generosity, and dealing with difficult people (because let’s be honest, every family has at least one).

Here's a preview of this season's episodes:

• Day 1: A Case for a Huge Christmas Celebration with Dale Partridge
• Day 2: Adoption and the Heart for the Holidays with Hollen Frazier
• Day 3: Rekindling True Worship at Christmas with Bethany Stephens
• Day 4: Christmas with Cranky: Dealing with Difficult People with Zach Clinton
• Day 5: Where is the Wonder? with Abby Sexton
• Day 6: Storytelling Shapes the Season with Beecher Porch and Kingdom Story Company
• Day 7: Extraordinary Hospitality (for Ordinary People) at Christmas with Carolyn Lacey
• Day 8: Generosity and Giving Gifts That Last with Kristy Graham and Samaritan’s Purse
• Day 9: Unwrapping the Meaning of Advent with Haley Whitaker
• Day 10: Seeing Christ Through the Old Testament with Brent Thomason
• Day 11: The Meaning of Messiah with Israel Lambert
• Day 12: The Road to Redemption Begins at Christmas with Chrissie Dunham

Whether you’re navigating a season of joy or one of challenge, this series is a space for messy faith and honest moments. Join us as we celebrate the Savior who came to meet us in the mess and show us the depth of His love.

It’s Christmas, unpolished—just the way Jesus came for us. 🎄✨

Unpolished Faith and Madi Franquiz will be on a break from December 25th through the New Year. We will be back with regularly scheduled content for Season 3 on January 16th at 5:00 am.

Merry Christmas to all my people; and a Happy New Year too!
