In this powerful Advent sermon, Pastor Josh McPherson continues the “Art of War” series by unveiling ten ways Satan works to destroy your Christmas—from stirring division in families to fueling unrealistic expectations, selfishness, and spiritual distraction. Pastor Josh exposes the enemy's schemes to ruin your holidays with dysfunction and ungratefulness. This message is both a warning and an encouragement, calling believers to walk in the Spirit, guard their homes, and intentionally make Christmas Christ-centered. The devil has a plan for your Christmas — but so does God.

If your holidays are stressful, tense, or full of “dysfunction,” you are not alone.

In this special holiday episode, Pastor Josh McPherson and his wife, Sharon tackle real questions like:

- “We’re a newly married couple from broken homes—how do we plan our first holidays?”

- “Should we go to family gatherings where people openly affirm sin?”

- “What if family members refuse to repent and pretend nothing ever happened?”

- “Is it wise to invite people who mock our faith into our home for Christmas?”

They talk about:

- The difference between healthy and dysfunctional families at the holidays

- How to build new traditions and a new legacy when you come from broken homes

- When to say a clear “no” to unsafe people

- How husbands can love and protect their wives—especially from family pressure

- Why Paul says we judge inside the church, not outside

- How to set boundaries without becoming fragile, bitter, or isolated

If the holidays always seem to blow up, this conversation will help you look past the surface drama and get down to the real issues—starting with your own marriage, unity, and agreements.

Jay Milbrandt shares his research about the Pilgrims’ journey from England to North America as they fled religious persecution. As a descendant of two early immigrants on the Mayflower, Milbrandt was curious about what the true story was behind their ocean voyage. He describes the harsh conditions that the Pilgrims and Puritans endured, as they barely survived the first couple of years, with the help of an Indian named Squanto and the native Wampanoag tribe, explaining how festivals in Plymouth, Massachusetts became connected to our modern-day Thanksgiving. He also shares about the significance of the Mayflower Compact, which in some ways laid a foundation for the U.S. Constitution.

When you feel overwhelmed by others this holiday season there are things you can do to find hope. Kathi Lipp and Cheri Gregory talk about how to quiet the chaos and find peace. They share what being overwhelmed by others feels like, how we can “pre-decide” and set boundaries before we interact with family, how to practice self-care, and how to deal with “crisis creators.” They also share how to determine if something is a “big deal” or a “deal breaker.” A final reminder is given that with God’s help you can find peace at the holidays and throughout the year.
