We are totally guilty of the super spiritual Christmas card. We use it as one of the only overt opportunities we can share with close friends and family who are hostile towards the idea of Jesus and Christianity.

Agreed. It makes me sad when I flip through the Christmas cards received to count how many Christians actually have booted baby Jesus entirely from the Christmas card and instead have a big glossy photo of themselves. Sigh.

Amen, brother! I feel the same way. And as for the 'How are you?' question, I find it is polite to give a 'medium filtered' answer if you feel they actually want to know. If they don't, then that is fine too answer politely and lets move on our way.

And we eat gingerbread men and candy canes…I see a distinct correlation.

I’m with Matt on this one. If you don’t want to know how I am, don’t ask me!

I pass people at work all day, every day, and the “norm” is to say “What’s up” or “Hi! How are you?”, but no one ever slows down when they ask that question. They just keep walking.

this reminds me of an emergent church book i read, where the guy was trying to encourage ppl to strip their vocabularies of Christianeese. that is certainly helpful, but it would be terrible if we lose the divine viewpoint on our lives, and i think that if we stop talking about the Lord’s viewpoint we’re more likely to stop thinking about it, too. i see your point, but i think we have to be careful. ok enough seriousness, ‘traveling mercies’? psalty? tankinis? not accepting compliments? breaking up after retreats/Bible school? i can relate to so much here…

Haha. Hezekiah.

I can't believe I'm the only one who's commented or caught that! I feel like I should get a medal or a trophy. Not.
