Description
About the book:
A beautifully written, theologically faithful retelling of the very first Christmas night from Luke 2:1–20. Told through the eyes of Jonah, a young shepherd boy, this story invites children to stand on the Bethlehem hills, hear the angels sing, and come close to the manger where Jesus—our Savior—is lying.
The First Christmas Night focuses on the true Bible account: the census, the crowded town, the angels, the shepherds, and the baby Jesus in a manger. The wise men are not shown at the stable, keeping the timeline in line with Scripture, while still honoring their important place in the wider Christmas story.
What’s inside:
- A gentle, Scripture-based narrative of Luke 2:1–20, written specially for ages 5–9.
- A shepherd’s-eye view that helps children imagine what it was like to hear “good news of great joy for all people.”
- Notes for parents that provide biblical context (Luke and Matthew), help you talk with your child about God’s love, humility, worship, and salvation, and suggest key passages to read together.
- Perfect for Advent and Christmas reading, Christmas Eve traditions, family devotions, children’s church, and as a meaningful Christ-centered gift.
Perfect for classrooms, homeschooling, STEM corners, and family reading
