This episode was so good, we needed to post it twice! Welcome to the Christmas Season! People of faith should be thoughtful about what we believe and celebrate. Our convictions and practices should be guided by truth, not by what's familiar in our culture or comfortable in our traditions. In this episode, Andrew is joined by Shelton Markham and they have an extended conversation about Christmas.
