Every Christmas the Bible Society publishes a booklet telling the Nativity Story, explaining why the birth of a baby 2000 years ago is significant for us today. We give them out to families when they visit church for the Christmas party or a Christmas service. There is also an animated screen version.

This year the booklet is called “With Love from GOD TO YOU”. It features some conversations that God might have had with Planet Earth: (God is almighty but allows Himself to be portrayed in such a way that we can understand). In the booklet, God explains how he created a wonderful Planet Earth with people who were able to talk to Him, but they chose to reject His love and go their own way. Planet Earth groans about how people are messing up, but God explains His “AWESOME Plan” for saving the world and humankind by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to be born into a family in a small town in the Middle East.
