As the holiday season approaches, the age-old debate between “Happy Holidays” and “Merry Christmas” resurfaces. Amidst the controversy, some retailers proudly stand by their commitment to the true spirit of Christmas.
The American Family Association (AFA) has identified several stores that boldly celebrate Christmas, refusing to shy away from the holiday’s significance. These retailers deserve recognition for upholding the values of the season.
Hobby Lobby takes the lead, filling its stores with Christian music and closing on Sundays to honor the Sabbath. Belk joins the chorus, spreading Christmas cheer without resorting to clichés.
Nordstrom thoughtfully waits until after Thanksgiving to decorate, ensuring employees can participate in the festivities. Home Depot and Wal-Mart proudly use the term “Christmas,” embracing the holiday’s spirit.
Macy’s “Believe” campaign and iconic parade showcase its dedication to Christmas. JCPenney, despite past struggles, remains committed to the holiday. Bass Pro Shops partners with Duck Dynasty, delighting fans with its Christmas enthusiasm.
Lowe’s website is a Christmas wonderland, leaving no room for “Grinches.” Toys ‘R Us surprisingly puts “Christmas” front and center in its beloved catalogue.
These retailers serve as beacons of the Christmas spirit, inspiring us to proudly say “Merry Christmas.” By supporting these heroes, we preserve the joy and significance of the holiday.
As we shop this season, let’s remember the retailers courageously upholding Christmas traditions. Together, we can revive the true meaning of Christmas and keep its spirit vibrant and alive.
