But one North Carolina homeowners association didn t see it that way.
James Faison says after Easter this year, his homeowners association said he could put up a six-foot cross during the holidays.
However, after he and his wife put it up for the Christmas holidays, they received a letter from the association. We were shocked. We really were. We were shocked, especially whenever the email had referenced that the cross was not representative of Christmas, Faison told CBN News.
Faison also says the North Raleigh couple was even more surprised when the homeowners association told them they had to provide biblical references connecting the cross to Christmas.
