Nobody Special 143 | Christmas Parties, Preaching, and KFC

We all go to Christmas parties this time of year, but should we use these as opportunities to preach? We talk about Paul David Tripp’s recent comments on Christmas parties. Also we talk about the fact that Mario Lopez is playing Colonel Sanders because 2020.

Pastor and author Paul David Tripp recently made the statements that you should not use Christmas parties to preach at people. For his video click here or go to https://fb.watch/2hYs4dL6Hk/ While Danny and Caleb fully agree, we wanted to talk about some of the more nuanced points of his statements and where, when, and how we can preach to people.

Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good? But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled, but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, having a good conscience, so that, when you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame. (‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭3:13-16‬ ‭ESV)
