Christmas and Easter Continued

Christmas and Easter are two times of the the year that are supposed to be spent not only with family but also are supposed to be spent in the presence of God. Like I said in my first post, because of the importance of these two holidays it is not ironic that the attendance in church is much higher around these two times of year. Just because these are two very important holidays, however, does not mean that you should only go to church on these two dates. The Bible does not say that Christians should even celebrate Christmas, but has been celebrated since the 4th Century. Today's society, however, has taken away what the meaning of Christmas is truly all about. Yes Christmas is a season of giving and being with family and friens, but people today, as quoted by Brian Lewis, "spend more time at Wal-Mart and less time at church."
