O Little Town of Bethlehem

Some Christmas carols suggest that Christmas was quiet: "Silent night"... "O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie..." But the Bible tells a different story. From the jubilant celebration of angels to the excited talk of shepherds, Christmas night must have been a noisy affair. And it is a story that people have talked, sung and shouted about ever since.

This short, readable explanation of the Christmas message explains why Jesus' birth is such great news for everyone.
