Holiday
Grounded Viewpoint
The holiday season, as reflected in current events, is marked by both joy and hardship—moments of communal celebration, mourning, and personal challenges. Scripture calls believers to rejoice with those who rejoice and mourn with those who mourn (Romans 12:15), emphasizing empathy, unity, and the sustaining power of family and faith amid both festivity and adversity. In the midst of global tensions, tragedies, and personal struggles, holidays offer opportunities to practice Christlike compassion, stewardship, and gratitude, remembering that true peace and restoration are found in Christ (John 14:27).
