“We don’t need more time this Christmas, but we do need more intention.” – Lori Lane

In this special Advent episode of Legacy Parenting, Lori Lane invites us to step off the hamster wheel of holiday hustle and embrace sacred space—margin that leads to heart-level transformation. Through personal stories, biblical wisdom, and practical rhythms, Lori helps us realign our family calendar with what matters most: Christ.

We explore the difference between doing everything good and choosing the best things—the ones that make room for reflection, connection, and discipleship. Whether you're a first-time parent or a grandparent navigating family traditions, this episode gives you permission (and a framework) to parent with purpose this season.


Key Takeaways:

  • How “sacred space” creates room for spiritual transformation
  • Why margin matters more than a full schedule during Advent
  • The biblical foundation for intentional rhythms at Christmas
  • Personal examples from John and Lori's family about saying “yes” on purpose—and “no” with peace
  • Ideas for creating a slower, Christ-centered Christmas through Scripture, music, quiet evenings, and simple acts of kindness
  • Encouragement to parent with eternal vision, not just seasonal performance
