when does christmas music start on 107.9 mn
KQQL They are also known as "The Twin Cities' Christmas Superstation" and play Christmas music from the Friday of the week before Thanksgiving at 5 PM through midnight on Christmas Day, competing with 102.9 Lite FM until KMNB switched formats to country in December 2011 and ended its Christmas music tradition. In 2008, KQQL started the Christmas music earlier than ever, on the weekend of November 15. This is suspected[by whom?] of being a response to Lite FM switching earlier in the week.
Christmas Although the month and date of Jesus' birth are unknown, by the early-to-mid fourth century the Western Christian Church had placed Christmas on December 25,[23] a date that was later adopted in the East.[24][25] Today, most Christians celebrate on December 25 in the Gregorian calendar, which has been adopted almost universally in the civil calendars used in countries throughout the world. However, some Eastern Christian Churches celebrate Christmas on December 25 of the older Julian calendar, which currently corresponds to January 7 in the Gregorian calendar, the day after the Western Christian Church celebrates the Epiphany. This is not a disagreement over the date of Christmas as such, but rather a preference of which calendar should be used to determine the day that is December 25. Moreover, for Christians, the belief that God came into the world in the form of man to atone for the sins of humanity, rather than the exact birth date, is considered to be the primary purpose in celebrating Christmas.[26][27][28][29]
