Did you know Christmas was banned in early America?
Many may be surprised to learn that Christmas used to be illegal in parts of America — all thanks to Protestants, in particular, Puritans, who had a special animus towards "popish trumperies" — among them, the festive celebration of high holy days like the birth of Our Lord.
I delve into this fascinating piece of American history in this episode of Forward Boldly.
Wishing all of you, my friends and supporters, a very merry Christmas, and a new year filled with God's graces. As always, thank you kindly for all of your support and prayers, which are cherished beyond measure. I wish God's abundant graces and blessings on each of you!
