About this listen

Family tensions, mixed expectations, spiritual pressure, and packed schedules — Christmas can bring joy and stress. In this episode of Practicing Catholic, Taylor and Scott unpack how to navigate family dynamics during the holidays with gratitude, intentionality, and a deep reliance on God’s grace.

They discuss practical strategies for maintaining peace, communicating expectations with loved ones, fostering authentic joy, witnessing the faith without conflict, and keeping prayer at the center of a busy season. With humor, honesty, and pastoral insight, they help listeners enter Christmas prepared to love well – even when things get messy.

Plus: family traditions that keep Christ at the center, tips for praying while traveling, and the great Santa/St. Nicholas conversation.
