“No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. [44] Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. [45] A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.
Luke 6:43-45 NIV


Though the holidays can be a stressful time, they often bring out of us what was already in our hearts. When we work to understand and deal with our hearts as the above scripture mentions, we can be aware of our heart condition going into the holidays, which can help us enjoy them and give to our family and friends.

Join Russ and friends as they discuss more about how to handle Thanksgiving spiritually, along with movie and food suggestions to start your holidays off right.
