In this conversation, Rachel Kushner uncovers the deeper meaning of Hanukkah for Christian families by exploring how Jesus stepped into the story of the Festival of Dedication and illuminated its purpose. She explains how the festival commemorates the Maccabees’ revolt and God’s ongoing provision, and how Jesus celebrated Hanukkah while teaching about his identity. 

Rachel highlights that Hanukkah is ultimately a reminder that God brings light into darkness, and that light wins every time because Jesus wins every time. She encourages families to invite Jesus into their traditions, not from a place of perfection but remembrance, and offers practical, meaningful activities that help children and parents engage with faith in tangible ways. Through light, community practices, and simple family fun, Hanukkah becomes a celebration of God’s presence, hope, and faithfulness.
