Christmas

This resource is a Godly Play style story of the ‘whole story’ and looks at the entire story, rather than focusing in on the stable.

We have created this material to provide a Biblical approach to Christmas that peels away the extra layers that have built up over nearly two thousand years of re-telling.

This story can be told in three parts or as one. There are three videos to accompany the story.
