Ahhh, the Chri$tma$ $ea$on is in full swing and I’m so, so excited - because it’s all about Jesus, right?!?
I know we [Christians] are supposed to be mad because everyone is calling it the politically correct “Holiday Season,” but Jesus hasn’t been a part of Christmas in this country for a long, long time. Let’s embrace the trend and not call it Christmas. I vote that we rename it MEmas. That’s way more appropriate anyway. Did Jesus come to this earth for tree shaped cookies and Santa? We’ve lost the point.
With this dosage of holiday cheer, I bring you a new word that applies to this season (from Daniel Schultz).
Faithiness - (n) 1. Act or quality of valuing appearance of faith more than actual faith.
2. Massive oversimplification of religious belief, theology, etc., in order to create bland, inoffensive or superficial faith.
