Thanksgiving has a way of turning into a full family debate before the turkey is even carved. In this episode of You Can Handle the Truth!, we talk about how to navigate political conversations, complicated relatives, and holiday expectations with a Christian perspective that is honest, warm, and grounded in Scripture.

We walk through the parable in Matthew 22 and why Jesus used a banquet to explain the invitation of the gospel. We talk about choosing peace instead of proving a point, loving family members who disagree with us, and why kindness often opens doors that arguments close.

This episode is ideal for anyone hoping for a calmer, more Christ-centered Thanksgiving that reflects grace, patience, and truth.

For anyone needing a reminder of grace this Thanksgiving, here is a song that captures the heart of invitation and peace:
