Red-cheeked, you don’t know how to survive a holiday gathering.
What can you do?
In this post, discover how to master any holiday party. Because every girl in Christ should master fellowship with others.
Super Awesome Side Note: Survival holiday party tips are a must have — even if it is a Christmas party, New Year’s Eve gathering, or something else. This post is the original version of a previous post on surviving holiday parties. So enjoy. This post was also hacked to make me look like typos are my friend. I forgive whomever did this. God is watching you.
Super Psst… the big secret I’ve been hinting around about on social media for a few months now has finally been revealed… (its also why I have been MIA for a bit… ) Read on after this post for the juicy details.
*Disclaimer: These tips could be helpful. Especially, if you are already a believer in Christ. Also, always do further research. The sources for this or any post do not equal a full endorsement of any ministry or evangelist’s personal views by Awayion.com.***
TL:DR A quick post glance:
- Honor fellow guests
- Watch your mouth
- Dress appropriately
- Follow the host’s lead
- Use self control
Sound delightful? Okay, Ladies. Let’s start!
1. Honor Fellow Guests | Mastering Holiday Parties
Your adeptness in showing respect towards others, particularly believers who recognize the accomplished mission of Yeshua the Messiah (also known as Christ Jesus), propels your likelihood of conquering a festive gathering. Amidst a diverse assembly of both believers and nonbelievers, shower them all with love and affection (including nonbelievers). This diminishes any tension and enhances your capacity to navigate the holiday event harmoniously.
❤ Extra Side Note: Remember, you are saved by faith alone in the finished work of Christ, so you must model His love to others (psst… sometimes His love is tough). Study historical biblical scriptures for verses about who you should actually honor.

Research ❤ 1 Peter 2:17-25, Matthew 5:44
2. Watch your mouth
Just like being a better listener, you can effectively navigate holiday parties by being mindful of what you say.
Imagine being at a festive gathering, where a fellow guest shares scandalous office rumors. In the heat of the moment, you join in, only to feel a deep sense of guilt later. Intense emotions accompanied this guilt, and you realize that you may have jeopardized your reputation as a follower of Messiah Yeshua in front of those who do not believe.
In the scenario above, the consequences of not watching your mouth are both immediate and everlasting. To avoid such outcomes, exercise wisdom by being mindful of the words you speak.

Research ❤ Psalm 26:4, Ecclesiastes 10:20, 1 Thessalonians 5:22
3. Dress Appropriately
You significantly enhance your likelihood of excelling at holiday parties when you dress appropriately. This gesture serves as a testament to your respect for the host’s party guidelines.
Imagine attending a formal black-tie affair, where the air is filled with the scent of elegant perfumes and the soft rustle of luxurious fabrics. In such an environment, showing up in casual jeans and a tee would be completely out of place, jeopardizing your reputation. Dressing for the occasion allows you to uphold a favorable image. After all, no woman in Christ wishes to be known as someone with poor fashion sense. Right?

Research ❤ Proverbs 22:1, Deuteronomy 22:5
4. Follow the Host’s Lead
You can effortlessly navigate and master any holiday party by watching and following the host’s cues.
As an illustration, imagine the party table, devoid of any place settings. Without clarifying, you confidently choose the best seat, only to be abruptly requested by the host to move in front of the entire gathering. The sudden attention leaves you feeling utterly mortified as your face flushes crimson. You could have avoided this embarrassing moment had you simply sought guidance from the host.
Remember, to avert such humiliation, always take the lead from the host.
Research ❤ Luke 14:7-14

5. Use self-control
You can become the master of holiday gatherings by exercising self-control.
Picture this: you are the center of attention, captivating everyone with your charming presence. Laughter fills the air, mingling with the delightful aroma of festive treats. But suddenly, you realize that you unintentionally overshadowed the host’s moment to shine. It’s not a pleasant feeling, is it?
This instance above illustrates how a lack of self-control can cause unnecessary irritation for the host. To avoid such mishaps, it is crucial to use self-control during these occasions.
Research ❤ Luke 14:11, Proverbs 25:28, Titus 1:8

❤ Super Awesome Side Note: I use the term “holiday party” because there is no way in the world I could know the real name of your gathering. It could be a fancy office Christmas party or a New Year’s Eve gathering. I have no clue. So the term “holiday party” is only a general term. These tips can be used at any party year-round.
