In our latest episode, we explore this challenge with an inspiring conversation with Kathryn McAdam, the host of Unstoppable Joy. We delve into some practical tips for maintaining a Christ-centered focus during the holiday season - from breaking free from the pursuit of holiday perfection to cherishing nostalgic traditions like family caroling.

The conversation takes a turn as we touch on the heartwarming practice of gratitude and serving others as a way to truly appreciate our blessings. As Kathryn recounts her life journey and love for Jesus, her testimony is a poignant reminder of how trials and tribulations can be blessings in disguise.
