With the holiday season approaching, I thought it would be good to post a challenge to help with this busy season.
What holidays and other occasions (such as birthdays and anniversaries) do you celebrate this time of year?
Ask yourself these questions regarding each occasion you intend to celebrate in the next three months. If you would like to, you can copy and past the questions into a word-processing file and type in your answers.
What is the occasion?
When will I celebrate it?
Why do I celebrate this occasion?
What is the purpose of this occasion?
What does this occasion celebrate?
What does this occasion mean to me?
What do I hope to accomplish in my celebration of this occasion?
What does the celebration of this occasion involve?
What do I like about this occasion and my family’s celebration of it?
What do I dislike about this occasion or my family’s celebration of it?
What do I wish my family’s celebration of this occasion was like?
In what ways does the celebration of this occasion benefit me?
In what ways does the celebration of this occasion benefit others?
In what ways does the celebration of this occasion bless my family?
In what ways does the celebration of this occasion glorify God?
How would I celebrate this occasion if I could spend no extra money?
How would I celebrate this occasion if I could spend as much money as I wanted to?
What does my ideal celebration of this occasion look like?

Happy pondering!
