Family Christmas Traditions: Episode 934

December 25, 2025

Christmas activities across generations, plus the story behind the YouVersion Bible app, and overcoming the fear of a better option.    

Featured musical artist:  Covenant Worship  

Roundtable: How My Family Celebrates Christmas

Does your family have Christmas traditions that are non-negotiable? Maybe a special dish or dessert someone makes, a movie you watch every year, or a church service you attend together. Passing traditions down through generations makes the holiday season extra special, so our guests get nostalgic in sharing their own traditions and why they choose to prioritize them in the midst of everything else they could be doing.

Culture: Billions of Bibles

If you have the Bible app on your phone, you can thank Bobby Gruenewald. He birthed the idea in an airport, and what landed in Apple’s app store on day one has now tallied over one billion downloads. Bobby joins us for an insider’s look at the story behind the YouVersion app, what it can do (did you know our host, Lisa Anderson, has a reading plan there?), and how it’s reaching the world.

About The Boundless Show

Boundless is a ministry of Focus on the Family that exists to see young adults mature in Christ as the foundation for marriage and family. Through our website, blog and weekly podcast, we help singles in their 20s and 30s navigate the path to marriage biblically and intentionally while providing sound resources and advice on key issues young adults face. We discuss everything from dating and relationships to faith, worldview, career and culture in a fun, engaging and relevant way. We’re also on Facebook (Boundless.org) and Twitter (BoundlessTeam).

The Boundless Show is a weekly podcast designed to build community among single young adults and provide a God-centered perspective on relationships, culture, career and faith. Hosted by Focus on the Family’s Lisa Anderson, The Boundless Show brings a voice to the interests and concerns of today’s 20- and 30-somethings.

About Lisa Anderson

Lisa Anderson is director of Boundless (www.boundless.org) and host of The Boundless Show — a weekly podcast reaching 20- and 30-somethings with the message of God’s design for marriage and family. The show also features practical tips for dating intentionally, owning your faith, navigating career and culture, and maturing in all areas of life.  

Lisa speaks frequently at churches, conferences and workshops, and her writing has been featured in newspapers, magazines, and in Streetwise and The Big Screen — two books in David C. Cook’s Custom Curriculum series.

When not challenging the next generation, she enjoys traveling, running, and quoting her mother, who is known to say outrageous things. She loves Jesus, people, ideas and guacamole, in that order.
