\nOne of the greatest opportunities churches and Christian schools have each year is presenting a Christmas program. But there\u2019s a problem.<\/p>\n
Many of today\u2019s Christmas productions are long on entertainment but short on biblical truth. They\u2019re filled with cute moments and holiday sentiment yet often contain very little solid teaching from God\u2019s Word.<\/p>\n
While there\u2019s certainly nothing wrong with making a program enjoyable and memorable, we don\u2019t believe that should come at the expense of the life-changing message of the gospel.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why Answers Academy\u2014the discipleship school of Answers in Genesis\u2014began creating its own Christmas dramas.<\/p>\n

Every year, our staff writes and produces a brand-new program that combines engaging drama, memorable music, historical research, biblical teaching, and a clear presentation of the gospel. These productions don\u2019t simply retell the Christmas story\u2014they help audiences understand it<\/strong>. They answer important questions, provide rich historical context, and reveal how every part of the Christmas account points to God<\/span>\u2019s plan of redemption through Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n The response has been tremendous.<\/p>\n Parents, students, and audiences have told us how these dramas have deepened their understanding of Scripture while providing an unforgettable Christmas experience. So we decided not to keep them to ourselves. Now churches, Christian schools, and homeschool groups everywhere can use these professionally written productions in their own Christmas outreach.<\/p>\n With generous performance rights and freely reproducible actor scripts, we\u2019ve done the hard work. Our desire is to see these dramas used around the world to proclaim the true meaning of Christmas and clearly present the saving gospel<\/span>.<\/p>\n The Zealot\u2019s Fight<\/strong> follows Miciah, a passionate Jewish Zealot longing for the Messiah to overthrow Rome. But he discovers that humanity\u2019s greatest enemy isn\u2019t political oppression\u2014it\u2019s sin. This powerful drama reveals why Jesus<\/span> came, not to lead a political revolution but to rescue sinners through His death and resurrection.<\/p>\n Behold the King<\/strong> tells the Christmas story from the court of King Herod. Through the eyes of one of Herod\u2019s servants, audiences witness the striking contrast between an earthly ruler obsessed with power and the true King of kings, whose kingdom will never end.<\/p>\n Keeping Watch<\/strong> begins with the shepherds on the hills outside Bethlehem after 400 years of prophetic silence. It beautifully connects the shepherds, the sacrificial lambs, and Jesus<\/span> Christ\u2014the spotless Lamb of God<\/span> who takes away the sin<\/span> of the world.<\/p>\n A Pondering Heart<\/strong> explores the Christmas account through Mary\u2019s eyes as she comes to understand the child God<\/span> entrusted to her care. The drama highlights the biblical connection between Christ\u2019s birth and God<\/span>\u2019s unfolding plan of redemption through the Passover Lamb.<\/p>\n Long Foretold<\/strong> tackles questions people often ask: Who were the wise men? How did they know to follow the star? Were there really three? Did they arrive at the stable? Tracing the magi back to Daniel\u2019s time in Babylon, this fascinating production separates biblical truth from tradition while showcasing God<\/span>\u2019s sovereign plan throughout history.<\/p>\n Each drama offers a fresh perspective on the Christmas account while remaining firmly grounded in Scripture. They are educational, engaging, entertaining, and unapologetically gospel<\/span> centered.<\/p>\n Each drama offers a fresh perspective on the Christmas account while remaining firmly grounded in Scripture. <\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for a Christmas program that will captivate your audience while faithfully proclaiming God<\/span>\u2019s Word, these dramas are an outstanding resource for your church<\/span> or school.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s use this Christmas season not merely to entertain people but to help them understand why the Son of God<\/span> entered history. The baby in the manger came to be the Savior of the world.<\/p>\n To purchase these Christmas dramas, along with performance rights and all the resources you need to present them, see AnswersInGenesis.org\/store\/christmas-programs\/.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One of the greatest opportunities churches and Christian schools have each year is presenting a Christmas program.
