Family Life Noon Report

Friday 11/29/2024

On this day when Thanksgiving Weekend leads us toward the Christmas season, a special edition of the Family Life Noon Report.

Greg Gillispie talks with religious scholar Josh Sumpter about how the four-week season of Advent provides a time of preparation, expectation and hope --- in contrast to the commercialized "holiday season" that much of the culture gives us throughout December

Martha Manikas-Foster interviews devotional writer Chelsea Kingston Erickson about helping teens (especially) discover Good News amid Advent and the wait for the Nativity celebrations.

You'll also hear from Christian counselor Mark Mayfield about how to best work through loneliness during the holiday season.

Then the Family Life News anchors share a sampling of their memories of Christmases Past.
