22-Dec-2025
Christmas is a season of joy, memory, and meaning—and in this special episode of Practicing Catholic, the hosts take a break from the usual format to celebrate it together. From favorite Christmas memories and family traditions to beloved songs and movies, the conversation is lighthearted, warm, and deeply human.
Along the way, they reflect on how Christmas takes on new depth as parents, how children naturally grasp the beauty of Christ’s birth, and why the season invites us to slow down, rejoice, and keep celebrating well beyond December 25. It’s a joyful reminder that the mystery of Christmas is best lived in community, gratitude, and faith.
