"Why is Christmas still the high point of the secular calendar year? Why does it remain so embedded within the cultural imagination? Perhaps because Christmas is the clearest public manifestation of "Christendom" that there ever was. What is at stake when the Christianity of Christmas is gradually minimised? Is it something worth fighting for? With secularism and Islam encroaching in the West today, seemingly innocuous Christmas traditions may matter more than ever. The Church of England often squanders its unique opportunity to uphold this Christendom heritage in/around Christmas. What can good Christian gentlemen do to take back "Xmas" for Christ and proclaim his lordship in and through it? Join Aaron, Nathan, and Tom for a special festive episode of That Good Fight, where we talk about everything from carols, lights, sermons, Saracens' heads, Dickens, Scrooge, Kierkegaard, Prince Albert, Luther, Handel, all the way to Nathan's curious model Christmas village. God rest ye merry, gentlemen!"
