In this episode of Heart on the Altar, Brittani kicks off the Christmas season by going back to the real reason we celebrate: Jesus.
Instead of getting swept up in consumerism, comparison, and the pressure to “make Christmas magical,” she walks through Isaiah 9:6–7 and unpacks who Jesus really is:
- Wonderful Counselor – the One who invites us to be honest, raw, and real
- Mighty God – strong, powerful, and able to carry what we can’t
- Eternal Father – steady, present, and nothing like our imperfect earthly fathers
- Prince of Peace – the only One who can quiet the chaos inside us
Brittani also shares about a Christmas when her family was broke-broke—wrapping bags of Hot Cheetos and dollar snacks for the kids—and how God used that season to expose her heart, her pride, and her idea of “enough.”
If you’ve ever:
- Felt pressure to overspend or overdo Christmas
- Felt lonely, unseen, or disappointed during the holidays
- Wondered why the gifts, lights, and plans still don’t satisfy
…this episode is for you. 💛
Scripture: Isaiah 9:6–7 CSB
Listen in and be reminded: No tree, no gift, and no “perfect Christmas” can satisfy your heart more than Jesus Himself.
