Want To Keep Christ In Christmas?

by Texas Homesteader ~

For fellow Christians who really want to keep Christ in Christmas, there’s no need to demand that companies say ‘Merry Christmas’ instead of ‘Happy Holidays‘ or fight the masses about the design on a disposable cup.  It’s actually much easier than you’d think.
