Advent
The Nativity Scene
One of the many Christmas traditions for families is to set out a nativity scene depicting the birth of Jesus. Usually, we see Mary, Joseph, shepherds, sheep, and wise men surrounding a tiny baby in a manger. It’s a picturesque scene to remind us of Jesus’ birth. But our familiarity with the nativity scene can cause us to forget the humanity of each person present on that special night.

And now God is with us, He is Immanuel.
