WAA? Special Christmas Podcast: Where Did Christmas Come From? (41:16)

Welcome to a special Christmas podcast of “What’s an Adventist?”

In case you were wondering, the majority of Adventists observe Christmas and embrace the occasion as an opportunity to share Jesus with the world around them. But there are some Adventists, and Christians in general, who wonder whether they should be observing or celebrating Christmas at all being that it has pagan roots. But what’s the real story behind Christmas? Where did it all begin? Was Christmas an ancient festival made for sun worship? Or is December 25th the day Jesus was really born? The answers to these questions may surprise you (click on title to hear podcast).

This week Jesse Sias explores this intriguing topic from an Adventist point of view. Also, in this week’s podcast, WAA? listeners share what Christmas means to them. Thanks to all our listeners who shared their thoughts and helped make this special podcast, special indeed!

Merry Christmas from everyone at WAA?
