Our Favorite Christmas Traditions - Aby Rinella and Yvette Hampton, Part 5 - Best of Christmas!
Summary: How do we keep our focus on Jesus during the Christmas Season? Join Yvette Hampton and Aby Rinella as they discuss their family Christmas traditions. They also talk about some of the most important issues that families face at Christmas, like "when is the appropriate time to start listening to Christmas music?", "live or fake Christmas tree?", and what their favorite Christmas cookies are. This show was originally broadcast in 2019. Come back every day tomorrow for conclusion of our best of Christmas episodes! We will be back next week with all new episodes and a VERY EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT! Watch this full conversation on our YouTube channel. Yvette Hampton is a homeschool mom through and through, but it wasn’t supposed to be this way. Like so many other homeschoolers, Yvette and her husband, Garritt, said they would NEVER homeschool their kids, but God had other plans. As a mom who is concerned for future generations and for the future of our country, Yvette has a deep passion to see a culture shift by encouraging people through the truth of God’s Word. Her greatest joy in life is being a wife and mom! Aby Rinella is a former public school teacher turned passionate homeschool mom. Aby resides in the mountains of the west with her college sweetheart and 3 awesome kids where they enjoy all things outdoors. Aby is a writer and speaker seeking to encourage and inspire women to live the life they were designed to live, to train up their children in God’s Word, and to stand on truth in a culture that has lost its foundation.

This podcast has really encouraged me to make this a permanent change.

I never want to abdicate my role and responsibility as their Mama. I cannot wait to share this film with everyone once it is released!!” - Amber “We loved the movie and watched it with our children.
