Can you believe it? After weeks and months of planning and anticipation and face-stuffing from Thanksgiving, the actual Christmas season is finally here! Meet this year’s list of 35 fun holiday questions—one for each day from now through Christmas day—and which you can use as icebreakers, or when you meet someone at an event. (Actually, I think I just like coming up with the questions and answering them for myself!)
If you want to see the questions from the last two years, check them out—here for 2017: 2017 Holiday Questions and here, for 2016: 2016 Holiday Questions. And if you want to see my answers to these questions, you’ll have to go to my FB page and check out the extra post, scheduled for 6:15A EST today, here: https://www.facebook.com/4singlechristians.
