The Nativity Story
Posted by tom | Dec 16, 2006We may have to wait until next Christmas to nestle together as a family to walk alongside the The Virgin Mary as a Teenager With Worries as travels to O Little Town. I did page through a beautiful movie book the other day with only pictures and their related Scripture texts and read Christianity Today's Review, both were in encouraging. Looking forward to live performances of the Nativity story as Hayley and Ellen take part in the Children's Christmas at our local congregation tomorrow night (just played Joseph alongside Ellen as Mary and Hayley as the audience). Pictures, memories, dress-up, songs, and the good news of Jesus Christ incarnated. Enjoy your time with family and friends as you offer the true Christmas story.
Update: We took the opportunity to in 2007 to share The Nativity Story with the whole family. It was a helpful tool to discuss the coming of Christ. I commend it to your family's consideration of what to put into the VCR/DVD player on Christmas Day when lots of family come and visit.
