“Few holiday traditions are as time-honored as grabbing some hot cocoa, lighting a fire, and cuddling up in front of a Christmas movie,” says Mormon Movie Guy Jonathan Decker in his article “Christ-Centered Christmas Movies.”

“While films like White Christmas, Elf, A Muppet’s Christmas Carol, It’s a Wonderful Life, and A Christmas Story have rightfully earned their place as annually-watched classics, none of them focus specifically on Jesus Christ. The ‘reason for the season’ is often absent from lists of the best holiday cinema. So, without disparaging those other films (which I very much enjoy), may I suggest a few movies that entertain while putting the Lord at the center of Christmas worship?”
