w/ Bo Bowen, Judi Jackson, Katy Swilley

On this episode of The DBC Podcast, Bo sits down with some of the most enjoyable co-hosts this side of the North Pole: Judi Jackson (wife of senior pastor Allen Jackson and teacher of the DiscipleU Women's Ministry program) and Katy Swilley (DBC's Assimilation Coordinator). They discuss several specific Christmas traditions and activities that have become an essential part of our personal holiday observances, and also consider the reasons why each one carries the sense of significance, even power, that it does.

This conversation covers everything from holiday decorations, to the proper placement of the Wise Men in a Nativity scene, to the origins of the Christmas Tree and Santa Claus. It's a episode full of Christmas cheer, and one worth savoring. (SPECIAL NOTE: Toward the end of the episode, Santa Claus is discussed in analytical detail, so if you're listening with younger children, you might want to have them test out some earmuffs or something when that part comes up.)

Make sure you visit our website, www.dbcpodcast.org, to share your own Christmas traditions and thoughts on the significance of the holiday. We would love to hear from you!
