How for Christians, giving gifts can have a deeper meaning

The holidays are a great time to shine the light on Jesus whilst bringing joy to our loved ones. As it says in Romans 12:6 “In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well..."

The Christmas season brings families together to enjoy; meals, catch-ups, share memories and exchange gifts. But where does this tradition of giving gifts come from?

For Christians, the gifts given at Christmas are symbolic of the tributes made to the baby Jesus by the Three Wise Men after the birth during the story of the Nativity. The Bible Describes the Three Magi — Melchior, Caspar, and Balthazar — journeying to the location of Jesus’s birth by following a star, and upon their arrival, presenting him with gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Christmas presents are a time to surprise and delight those we love. The majority of people take great pride and pleasure in finding the perfect Christmas gift for a loved one. Once wrapped and delivered, watching the recipient's happy face as he or she unwraps it is a joyous occasion.

Is there a meaningful Christmas gift to give your loved ones?

The tradition of gift-giving at Christmas is centuries old, but their meaning has slowly been lost. This year, gift someone an Artza Subscription box. This Christmas Subscription Box keeps with the tradition of reminding people of Christ's miraculous birth so long ago in in Bethlehem. An Artza Subscription Box provides a very personal and faith-centered gift for celebrating the birth of Jesus, through the highest artisanal products made and produced in the Holy Land, Israel. Within each Artza box, you are not only giving a special gift to the receiver but also supporting the local Israeli people.





What makes Artza Subscription Box the ideal gift that keeps Christ at the center of this joyous occasion?

It is our goal to deliver a variety of gifts that are unique and difficult to find anywhere else. In addition to supporting local small businesses and strengthening people's ties to the Land of the Bible, our unique Artza Boxes are filled with authentic items from Israel aiming to bring the stories, people and scripture of the Bible to life.

These boxes bring the Land of the Bible closer to the receiver, making it a memorable and thoughtful gift while keeping the theme of Christmas central and close to Christ. This year's Christmas Subscription Box will take you on a journey across four of the cities in the Holy Land that played pivotal roles in the life of Jesus; Bethlehem where Jesus was born, then travelling up north to Nazareth and the Galilee and finally winding up the hills to end your journey in the Holy City of Jerusalem.

The Holy Land is filled with so many beautiful offerings that you'll be sure to find the perfect gift for every family member and friend. You can be sure that they will think of you and the stories of the Bible every time they use it.
