That Really Felt Like Christmas Magic (Ep. 92 - Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer)
🕑 Added 2016-12-15 14:00:01 +0000 UTCThis Week's Guest: Jonathan Renteria-Elyea
Growing up as in atheist home, December was the closest I ever came to having a religious experience -- not because of actual religion, but the beauty of the snow and gifting and carols and lights just overwhelmed and transported me, years before I had any inkling that there was any kind of churchy component.
My guest this week came to Christmas from the other side of the looking glass. Jonathan grew up in a deeply religious family, and similarly found himself swept up in the pageantry of the season. These days, he's distanced himself from the faith. And now Christmas has become spiritual for him in a far more personal way.
