Best Christmas Gift Ideas: December 25 is celebrated across the world marking the birth of Jesus Christ.
Christmas is an annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ, observed most commonly on
December 25 as a religious and cultural celebration among billions of people around the world. Popular customs include exchanging gifts, decorating Christmas trees, attending church, sharing meals with family and friends and, of course, waiting for Santa Claus to arrive. The first official mention of
December 25 as a holiday honoring Jesus' birthday appears in an early Roman calendar from 336 A.D.
Although there are many interpretations, the traditional narrative behind
Christmas celebrations is that Jesus' parents, Joseph and Mary, arrived at the city of Bethlehem, but had no lodgings. They were confined to a stable in an inn, which is where Jesus was born. This traditional narrative is known as The Nativity of Jesus.
