Episode Outlines

This episode explores the why behind the glitz and glam of Christmas, considering how the first Christmas fits with the narrative of 
the Old Testament. The Jewish people had been awaiting a Saviour for thousands of years since his coming was foretold in the 
Garden of Eden. All their history had pointed towards this moment!

We look forward eagerly to Christmas each year, but that wasn’t the case on the first Christmas because nobody knew it was 
coming! It was certainly a big surprise for Jesus’ mum Mary to find out she would be the mother of the Messiah. How did she and 
her fiancé Joseph cope with this news? And is there actually a donkey in the Christmas story?!

Our knowledge of the Christmas story may stop with the baby in the manger, but this episode explores what happened next, 
between the first Christmas and the first Easter. Pupils are invited to consider what they believe about the meaning of Christmas.
