What are the 12 Days of Christmas?
The Twelve Days of Christmas are the season the Church sets aside to celebrate the good news that God has come near in Jesus Christ. Rather than ending on December 25, Christmas unfolds from Christmas Day through January 5, carrying us from the birth of Christ toward the revelation of his light to the world at Epiphany. These days invite us to linger with joy, wonder, and gratitude—to dwell with the mystery of the incarnation and to let it shape our lives at a slower, deeper pace. In a culture quick to move on, the Twelve Days of Christmas call us to stay, to listen, and to rejoice in Emmanuel: God with us.
The 1st Day for Christmas begins on December 25th.
We're dusting off some older podcast episodes for the 12 Days of Christmas—music + reflections for anyone who wants to keep leaning into the season instead of moving on too quickly.
Helpful if you’re craving something thoughtful and unhurried in this season.
Feel free to listen, share, or just let them play in the background as these days unfold.
