Each December we automatically do things that say “Christmas,” but we don’t always know why. Not all Christmas traditions are directly related to the religious holiday. However, looking at our Church’s history to uncover how Christmas developed is a window to our faith.
What does the Christmas tree symbolize? How has the Nativity scene been depicted over time? Why do we celebrate Midnight Mass?
Christopher M. Bellitto, PhD explores these and other intriguing questions as he helps us understand how our Catholic Christmas traditions came to be.
