About this episode
It’s time to trim the tree and refute some heresies because in this episode of Stuff We Didn’t Get in Sunday School we’re talking about what the Church gets wrong about Christmas. Join Knox, Jamie, and Erin as they explore the history of Christmas trees, fake snowball fights, and whether or not you should take up your arms in the War on Christmas (spoiler: you’re probably fine). Does baby Jesus cry at the sight of Xmas, and what’s the deal with Mary’s virginity? You’ll have to listen to find out!
