"Being perfectly imperfect this Christmas is okay – that’s when people see the real Jesus in us." -Kelly

The holidays can bring so much anticipation, but they can also bring stress, exhaustion, and unmet expectations. Carol, Tricia, and Kelly gathered live at Hickory Bible Church for a heartfelt and fun Christmas conversation about keeping Jesus at the center of this season. 

From childhood stories of disappointing gifts (hello, Oral B toothbrush!) to reflections on Hurricane Helene’s aftermath, the girls share how slowing down, leaning into community, and clinging to God’s hope can transform the season.

Settle under the glow of your Christmas lights and join us as we remember what matters most this season: Jesus.

3 Takeaways from the Episode:

1. Be Still and Reflect – Whether it’s sitting by the Christmas tree lights or pausing for quiet moments, take time to slow down and focus on Jesus.
2. Embrace Imperfection – The perfect Christmas doesn’t exist, but God’s hope shines brightest when we’re real, honest, and imperfect.
3. Find and Share Hope – When life feels overwhelming, lean into God’s promises and look for ways to share hope with others in your community.
