What's Your Plan to Teach the Christmas Story?
I'm curious about your plans for teaching the Christmas Story this year. How are you going to present the information about the birth of our Savior?
The most interesting approach I've heard recently is to ask the class what's in the story, write it all down on the board, then go back through the actual texts in the Gospel accounts, and identify those things which have been "added" -- but many people think are real. (For example: How many Magi were there? There were gifts of gold, incense, and myrrh (Matt 2:11) but the text doesn't tell us there were three Magi (Matt 2:1) )
