Anatomy of the Church and State

Episode 28 Christmas 2023 Special!

Join us in this Christmas special episode! We discuss our personal experiences and perspectives on Christmas. Patrick and Steve and myself share what Christmas means to us and how our traditions have evolved over the years. We talk church services, Die Hard, and reflect on the changing atmosphere of Christmas and the significance of the coming of the birth of Jesus. We explore the importance of stories, the impact of secularism on Christmas, the meaning of Merry Christmas, and more!
