Christian Things To Do Before Christmas

Is it me, or is life still a bit weird?

I mean I didn’t find life “not weird” before Covid, but anyway…

You may have noticed that Christmas is coming up. And its probably sooner than you reckon. (No don’t count the days – it will feel quicker!)

My point being, is that I’ve tried noting down what I need to do before Christmas

Reckon I’ve missed any?

A Christian Guide to Secret Santa Gifts

Hey! Its Christmas! Well its nearly Christmas, and over the coming weeks there will be all the Christmas things that this time of year brings. Is one of these things for you, Secret Santa? What would make the perfect Christian Secret Santa gift?

The rule is it has to be cheap… and they have to be very Christian…

Here’s what The Sofa found for a guide to Christian Secret Santa gifts – affiliate links are contained in the below post.

The Christian Secret Santa Gift Guide

Christian-Notebook-Christmas-Gift

The Jesus Will Die For Me Notebook.

Perfect for people who want a notebook that looks a bit like a Bible, but also want to say that Jesus loves them.

Found on Amazon

The Hopeful Bible Mug

Encourage someone to have coffee and Biblical hope. Afterall, “coffee hope” doesn’t last on its own.

Amazon Link.

A Stocking filler!

Seriously. The product calls this a stocking filler. How much more Santa can you get??

Read it for yourself on Amazon.

Creepy Holy Family Decoration.

I may have seen more then enough Doctor Who episodes, but does anyone else find this “Holy Family Hanging Ornament” kinda… creepy?

I mean… they have no faces…

With apologies to Mrs Sofa for including this. (She’s a fan, and thinks I’m weird for being creeped out by them)

Get your own creepy family. They are quite cheap.

An Amazon voucher.

Just get your Secret Santa person an amazon voucher.

It doesn’t need to be for much. It could just be for 99p.

They could buy themselves this book for the Kindle.

And thats just a sample!

What cheap Christian gift would you give someone?

Not like I’m looking for any ideas or anything…

Its a mad time really, full of dashing around making sure everyone is happy, but have you ever wondered about some of what we do at Christmas, such as:

  • Why do we have Christmas Trees?
  • Why bother sending Christmas Cards to each other?
  • Who on earth is Father Christmas anyway?
  • Where did this all start?

The WhyChristmas website aims to answer these questions of the season and many more, and worth checking out.
