ABC Christmas Lessons (KJV Lesson Set 1)

Lesson Theme

Whether you’re currently using Answers Bible Curriculum (ABC) or just looking for a seasonal lesson, our Christmas lessons will help students focus on the real meaning of Christmas—Jesus. Students will see from the Bible how God promised to send a Savior, how God prepared for Jesus’ birth, and how Jesus’ coming brings joy.

Use our Christmas lessons to help your students focus on the real meaning of Christmas—Jesus’ birth! Lessons 1A–1C are designed to be taught consecutively but work well as standalone lessons, too. Lessons 2A and 2B are standalone topical lessons designed to teach often-misunderstood truths about Jesus and the account of his birth.
