New vids on the block
The Really Good News of Christmas
Bible Society Australia’s 2017 Christmas video is a rhyming, animated journey through Bethlehem.
From the UK’s SpeakLife (previously The Hour of Revival), which offers evangelistic materials primarily for churches, is the new, four-part Christmas series Meet the Nativity. One episode is being released every week in December, in the lead up to Christmas.
Bible Society UK has released The Greatest Journey, a three-minute animated short that tells the Christmas story in a similar vein as the super-popular children’s book We’re Going on a Bear Hunt.
Also from Bible Society UK this year, a moving, 7-minute spoken word poem and original song called “Mary’s Song” which reflects on Mary’s journey to motherhood.
