Merry Christmas, my friends. Today I want to talk straight about why no one should be offended by Christmas and why we should never stop celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
This country was built on biblical Christian principles, and you’re going to hear it from the mouths of our own founders and presidents – men like Washington, Franklin, Adams, Lincoln, Jackson, Reagan and others who all spoke about the Bible and its importance.
I also share more of my journey: from a prison cell, throwing the Bible against the wall, to digging into the evidence and becoming convinced that Jesus is exactly who He said He is.
If you’re of another faith, this isn’t an attack on you. I’m not offended by Hanukkah, Ramadan or any other holiday – and no one should be offended by Christmas. This season exists because of the birth of Jesus, and we should never be afraid to say “Merry Christmas.”
​
God bless you all. Enjoy the day with your families and never forget what – and who – we’re really celebrating.
