Are you looking for a unique Christmas play for your church, Christian school, homeschool co-op, or other group? Many Christmas play scripts are “fluffy” and just “feel good,” imparting little of the rich, deep truth from God’s Word. If you want something more than “fluff and stuff,” I encourage you to consider A Pondering Heart, produced by our own Twelve Stones Christian Academy (recently rebranded as Answers Academy).
This one-hour performance follows Mary as she discovers the ultimate purpose of her babe laid in a manger. Like all the resources Answers in Genesis produces, this play is more than just an emotional production to make you laugh or cry. It’s designed to enrich your understanding of God’s Word and to see how the Old Testament connects with the New Testament. Through Mary and Joseph’s interactions with each other and their friends and family, you’ll discover afresh the promises of God that began in the Garden so long ago when God promised a Savior.
The audience, as well as the children and volunteers participating in the play, will gain a deeper understanding of the Bible’s history and narratives as they discover the connection between the unblemished Passover lamb, the prophecies of the Messiah, and the Son that God sent that first Christmas. As with all Answers in Genesis resources, A Pondering Heart is gospel focused, concluding with a powerful gospel presentation.
Want to learn more? You can watch the entire play, performed in the Answers Center at the Ark Encounter by the students at Answers Academy.
