- Maatschappij en cultuur
Every year, Christmas is the greatest celebration around the globe. No other event makes us get together as families and friends like Christmas. And yet, Christmas is also the worst time of the year for millions of lonely, hurting people. Commandeered by businesses and restaurants, Christmas celebrations often obscure Christ, whose birth is the original and best reason to celebrate Christmas. Find out why the birth of Christ deserves to be celebrated with all your heart.
Programme presented and produced by Gabriel Porras at gabrielvoice.com and musmullosradiantes.com
